This Would Help

     There's an emergency appropriations bill pending in the Senate mostly designed to cover the costs of the January 6 insurrection. However, there's $150 million tucked away in the bill (page 20) for Social Security which has been buffeted by many things in the last year but not so much by the insurrection. There is not a similar special appropriation for Social Security in the version of this bill passed by the House of Representatives.
