Senate Democrats unite to oppose Reagan Social Security plan
Senate Democrats vote to resist proposed Social Security cuts with a united stance. White House officials say ideas can be improved and target changes include early retirement penalties. Critics warn the plan could cut benefits, while lawmakers push for bipartisan approaches and preserve solvency. The debate centers on 1986 and 1990 reforms and a constitutional balanced-budget amendment advances in committee.
