Thank you for the informative post linking to the source documents. I focused on the actuarial letter, which stated that the effect of the proposed changes would make social security fiscally sustainable within a 75-year window.

Since libs are big on "sustainability," they should endorse this bill, or one which achieves the same results.

This does not mean that the bill could not be tweaked in various ways to mitigate or eliminate features that some might oppose, but at least it is a serious move in the right direction. As individual cities are finding out, unfunded liabilities cannot be kicked down the road forever.
