House subcommittee backs higher Social Security earnings limit
The Ways and Means panel moves to raise the earnings threshold for retirees, arguing current limits force low-income seniors to eat cat or dog food. If enacted, payments could rise to about 6,004 in 1979, with gradual increases to 3,248 in 1978 and 5,480 in 1979, though the plan faces cost objections from Social Security Commissioner Cardwell. The vote was unanimous, reflecting a Republican dime-back compromise with Democrats, and the issue will be revisited with long-range reforms next year.
