House expands old age insurance coverage by 3.5 million
The House passed 237 to 2 to send to the Senate a bill opening participation to about 3.5 million more workers in the Social Security program. It omits broad benefit increases and a general tax rise, sticking to employer and employee tax hikes planned for 1950 and excluding self employed, farm, and household workers for now. Local government and nonprofit employers can join with approval, along with some semi public and farm sector workers. Truman sought broader coverage and higher benefits, but the bill falls short of his May proposal.
