US: Proposes Commission
A new legislative proposal would create a bipartisan commission to strengthen the finances of Social Security and Medicare at a time when the programs that help older adults are under pressure — but such a move could waste more time as insolvency looms. U.S. Rep. Gus Bilirakis, a Florida Republican, has reintroduced the Commission on Sustaining Medicare and Social Security Act. The bill would create an independent, bipartisan commission of experts tasked with identifying solutions to ensure the long-term financial stability of both Medicare and Social Security and providing recommendations to Congress for action.
