On Dec. 21, the U.S. Senate passed the Social Security Fairness Act, a bipartisan bill to eliminate reductions in social security benefits for millions of Americans. With a vote of 76-20, the bill now heads to President Joe Biden's desk for final approval.

The article discusses the passage of the Social Security Fairness Act by the U.S. Senate, which aims to repeal the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO). These provisions have historically reduced or eliminated Social Security benefits for many public sector workers, such as teachers, police officers, and firefighters, who also receive pensions from jobs not covered by Social Security. The Act's passage marks a significant victory for these workers, as it will allow them to receive their full Social Security benefits without the previous offsets. This legislative change has been long-awaited and is seen as a step towards fairness in retirement benefits for public servants. The bill now awaits consideration in the House of Representatives.
