WASHINGTON<\/b>-Reps. Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.) y el Senador Bernie Sanders (I-VT), junto con el Senador Jeff Merkley (D-OR) presentaron una legislaci\u00f3n el mi\u00e9rcoles para ampliar los beneficios del Seguro Social y fortalecer el programa de jubilaci\u00f3n para las generaciones venideras.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cComo geront\u00f3logo capacitado, he dedicado mi carrera a proteger programas y beneficios vitales para las personas mayores. Siempre ha sido y sigue siendo mi m\u00e1xima prioridad proteger el Seguro Social. Ante los futuros desaf\u00edos de financiamiento, necesitamos soluciones de sentido com\u00fan para proteger completamente este programa vital. Es incomprensible que mientras el Seguro Social est\u00e1 en crisis financiera, estemos permitiendo que millonarios dejen de cotizar el programa esta semana. Me enorgullece presentar una legislaci\u00f3n para abordar esta disparidad, aumentar los beneficios para las personas mayores y proteger el programa de los recortes partidistas\u201d, dijo DeFazio.<\/p>\n

\u201cEl Seguro Social nunca ha sido m\u00e1s importante de lo que es hoy. Sin embargo, a medida que aumenta el costo de vida y se reducen los beneficios de jubilaci\u00f3n del sector privado, m\u00e1s y m\u00e1s personas mayores se encuentran luchando para llegar a fin de mes con sus beneficios del Seguro Social\u201d, dijo Merkley. \u201cNecesitamos fortalecer los beneficios y fortalecer el fondo fiduciario, y este proyecto de ley hace ambas cosas\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cEs hora de expandir el Seguro Social, no de recortarlo\u201d, dijo Sanders. \u201cEn un momento en que m\u00e1s de la mitad de los estadounidenses mayores de 55 a\u00f1os no tienen ahorros para la jubilaci\u00f3n, nuestro trabajo es expandir el Seguro Social para asegurarnos de que todos en este pa\u00eds puedan jubilarse con la dignidad que se han ganado y que todos los discapacitados puedan hacerlo. vivir con la seguridad que necesitan. \u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

El Seguro Social es uno de los programas gubernamentales m\u00e1s populares y exitosos. Antes de que se creara el Seguro Social en 1935, aproximadamente la mitad de las personas mayores de Estados Unidos viv\u00edan en la pobreza. Hoy en d\u00eda, la tasa de pobreza de las personas mayores es s\u00f3lo 8.8 por ciento<\/a>. Sin embargo, a pesar de este \u00e9xito, uno de cada cinco adultos mayores est\u00e1 tratando de sobrevivir con un ingreso de menos de $13.500 al a\u00f1o<\/a> y aproximadamente la mitad de los estadounidenses de 55 a\u00f1os o m\u00e1s tienen cero ahorros para la jubilaci\u00f3n.<\/a><\/p>\n

La legislaci\u00f3n aumentar\u00eda los beneficios en aproximadamente $1,342 al a\u00f1o para las personas mayores que ahora ganan menos de $16,000 al a\u00f1o y aumentar\u00eda los ajustes por costo de vida al medir con mayor precisi\u00f3n los patrones de gasto de las personas mayores.<\/p>\n

El proyecto de ley tambi\u00e9n garantizar\u00eda que el Seguro Social pudiera pagar todos los beneficios adeudados a todos los estadounidenses elegibles durante los pr\u00f3ximos 52 a\u00f1os, seg\u00fan el actuario jefe del sistema de jubilaci\u00f3n. Extender\u00eda la solvencia del programa al hacer que el 1,8 por ciento m\u00e1s rico de los estadounidenses, aquellos con ingresos de m\u00e1s de $250,000 al a\u00f1o, paguen la misma tasa al sistema de jubilaci\u00f3n que todos los dem\u00e1s ya pagan. La ley actual limita el monto de los ingresos sujetos a impuestos sobre la n\u00f3mina a $132,900.<\/p>\n

La legislaci\u00f3n de DeFazio y Sanders restaurar\u00eda los beneficios estudiantiles, eliminados en 1983, que ayudan a educar a los hijos de padres fallecidos o discapacitados. <\/p>\n

Fortalecer y ampliar el Seguro Social cuenta con un apoyo generalizado: el 72 % de los estadounidenses, incluido el 51 % de los republicanos, \u201capoyan el aumento, no el recorte, de los beneficios del Seguro Social pidiendo a los millonarios y multimillonarios que aporten m\u00e1s al sistema\u201d, seg\u00fan un informe de octubre de 2016. encuesta<\/a> por Public Policy Polling.<\/p>\n
