The bipartisan Social Security Fairness Act will ensure first responders and teachers receive their full Social Security benefits. "Iowa teachers, police officers, first responders, and other public servants deserve their full retirement benefits, but many have had their benefits unfairly reduced. The bipartisan Social Security Fairness Act will immediately restore the benefits that millions of retired public servants rely on and have earned. As Iowa seniors struggle to pay the bills due to inflation, it is critical that Congress pass this bipartisan solution, and I will continue fighting to bring this legislation across the finish line for our retirees." - Congresswoman Ashley Hinson Background: Currently, the Government Pension Offset and the Windfall Elimination Provision unfairly reduce the earned retirement, disability, spousal, and survivor benefits of lower-paid public workers. The bipartisan Social Security Fairness Act eliminates these provisions, ensuring retired public servants receive their full benefits. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T03:24:37Z |
