The Value of This Week’s Social Security Payment
For needs including rent, groceries, and medical bills, retirees rely on these payments. Monthly Social Security payments to more than 70 million Americans make this one of the biggest federal programs helping to maintain economic stability. This payment guarantees that recipients may keep their quality of life even if inflation is increasing.
Passed earlier this year, the Social Security Fairness Act (SSFA) has also increased payouts for some seniors by eliminating reductions brought about by the Government Pension Offset (GPO) and Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP). Higher benefits for some teachers, firefighters, and other public sector employees follow from this.
