Bill overview
This bill, the Boosting Benefits and COLAs for Seniors Act, aims to improve the accuracy of cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) for Social Security recipients. Specifically, it directs the Social Security Administration to use the Consumer Price Index for Elderly Consumers (CPI-E) instead of the standard CPI-W when calculating COLAs. The bill also adjusts how COLAs are determined for benefits received before 1979, and establishes a process for publishing a dedicated CPI-E index.
