The benefits were adjusted based on rules for workers who earn both pension and Social Security benefits. Today, Dave is pushing for the Social Security rules that reduced his benefits to be changed. Social Security benefits are calculated using a worker's average indexed monthly earnings, and then using a formula to calculate a worker's basic benefit amount. If two-thirds of the government pension is more than the Social Security benefit, the Social Security benefit may be zero. Part of what may create that advantage is that Social Security benefits are progressive, and therefore replace a larger share of income for lower earners.

Student debt relief activists participate in a rally at the US Supreme Court on June 30, 2023 in Washington, DC. “Of course, the lowest-earning households still collectively owe around $7 billion a year in student loan repayments. After the Supreme Court dashed any hopes of loan forgiveness, more Americans started making loan payments before the official repayment period, as well as interest, kicked in. “It’s just all the supplemental spending, a lot of that will disappear so that we can make room for the [student loan] payments,” he said. Jonnisha McCleod was able to wipe out $12,000 of her student loan debt.

Win Mcnamee | Getty Images News | Getty ImagesIt's poised to occur this year as hard-right conservatives in the Republican-controlled House are using a possible shutdown as leverage to force deep cuts in federal spending. watch nowMillions may also lose certain federal benefits, with that threat increasing with the length of a shutdown, experts said. Food assistance through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance, or SNAP, program is "on better footing" than WICs, which would likely be affected within days of shutdown, Sprick said.

Monkeybusinessimages | Istock | Getty ImagesMillions of Americans may receive reduced Social Security benefits if they worked in public roles as teachers, firefighters, police or government workers. "There just aren't that many legislative days left," said Maria Freese, senior legislative representative at the National Committee to Preserve Social Security and Medicare. Why public servants encounter reduced Social SecurityThe Social Security Fairness Act calls for repealing two titles of the Social Security Act that reduce or eliminate benefits for Americans who work in public service — the Windfall Elimination Provision and the Government Pension Offset. The Social Security Fairness Act would fully repeal both rules, thus making benefits more generous for those affected. 82 would need offsets not to have a huge financial impact on the Social Security trust funds, and it doesn't provide that," Sprick said.
