About Social Security Faces Insolvency In 7 Years — Committee Proposes COLA Cap For Wealthier Retirees

A new proposal aims to address the imminent insolvency of Social Security by capping COLA increases for higher earners, potentially saving 115 billion dollars over ten years. The plan ensures that most retirees still receive full inflation protection while focusing on extending the program's financial stability. With Social Security projected to face depletion by 2032, policymakers are seeking solutions to balance benefits and solvency, sparking ongoing debates about reforms and fairness.
