In what could be good news for yours truly, the House passed the Social Security Fairness Act, thanks to a procedural maneuver to bypass the Ways and Means committee and put it up to a vote by the entire House.
The Senate has its identical version of the House bill. It has 62 co-sponsors. If it passes Congress, President Biden will sign it into law.
I would get an extra $120 a month on my Social Security benefit. Let's just hope Trump and company don't pull shit with the Third Rail.
The House vote was overwhelming for repeal: 327 to 75. The Senate will likely do the same and then Biden will sign it into law.
I think there may be issues with the GPO because of the dual entitlement rule, but repeal of the WEP is long overdue.
