Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

Social Security 2100 Act

Key claim: The Social Security 2100 Act (S5042) was introduced in the 119th Congress and referred to the Senate Committee on Finance.

Abstract

(S5042 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-07-21): Read twice and referred to the Committee on Finance.

Why this matters

The Social Security 2100 Act is a recurring vehicle for expanding benefits while raising payroll tax obligations on higher earners, making it a bellwether for how Congress balances program solvency with distributional trade-offs. Its reintroduction in the 119th Congress signals continued interest in shifting more of the Social Security financing burden upward, though its Finance Committee referral status indicates no immediate movement.
