A BILL To amend title II of the Social Security Act to repeal the retirement earnings test, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, the Senior Citizens' Freedom to Work Act of 2023, aims to repeal the retirement earnings test under the Social Security Act. The retirement earnings test currently reduces Social Security benefits for individuals who continue to work and earn income above a certain threshold after reaching retirement age. This bill would remove this reduction, allowing seniors to work and earn without having their Social Security benefits decreased. The bill also includes various conforming amendments to other provisions of the Social Security Act and the Railroad Retirement Act to align with the repeal of the retirement earnings test.
