House Ways & Means Committee discusses Social Security reform
In what appeared to be a refreshing example of bipartisanship, members of the new House Ways & Means Committee held a 4 hour hearing to discuss retirement income security, and Social Security was center stage during those discussions. Among the main topics was the recently re-introduced Social Security 2100 Act, sponsored committee member Rep. John Larson (D-CT).
