WASHINGTON, D.C. (KALB) – On November 12, 2024, the U.S. House of Representatives passed House Resolution 82, commonly known as the “Social Security Fairness Act of 2023.”
With a resounding 327 to 75 vote, the U.S. Senate will now take up H.R. 82 before President Joe Biden decides the bill’s future.
H.R. 82 aims to eliminate two Social Security provisions in the U.S., the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO). HR 82 was co-authored by Louisiana Republican Congressman Garret Graves and Virginia Democratic Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger.
