State Senator Proposes $10 Pension Boost
In Columbus on July 10 AP reported Senator Albert L. Daniels of Highland introduced a bill to raise Ohio old age pension maximums from $55 to $65 a month, costing an estimated $20 million over two years. Daniels cited 123,753 pensioners averaging $45.85 monthly, with 39,000 receiving the top $55, and noted most payments are scarcely livable. The plan would shift funding from state to cover increases as federal contributions remain $30 of the $55 max.
