Widowers Gain Social Security Rights, Court Rules
A three judge federal panel in New York ruled widowers have the same Social Security survivor benefits as widows. The decision could extend benefits to about 400000 men nationwide, with first year costs estimated up to 333 million dollars. The ruling overturned a requirement that a widower must have provided half of his wife's support. The decision may be appealed to the Supreme Court.
