DescriptionAccording to the U.S. Social Security Administration, the Social Security Trust Fund could be completely depleted as early as the second quarter of 2033 - much earlier than previous projections. This is due to falling tax revenues and declining birth rates. If reform is not enacted, the funds will only be able to pay out 83% of mandated pensions and benefits. Opposition congressmen are demanding emergency measures to raise the retirement age for top managers and increase the tax on high incomes. The bet is on whether the House of Representatives will have time to formally register the first bipartisan bill to prevent fund bankruptcy before the end of the summer.
ConditionsYes: if, up to and including August 31, 2026, a bill to reform or change the funding of the Social Security Trust Fund is officially registered and published in the U.S. Congress.No: if no official text of the reform is published on the Congressional website by August 31, 2026.
