Bill overview
This bill temporarily exempts certain healthcare workers and first responders from the Social Security retirement earnings test for the period of January 1, 2020, through December 31, 2020. Currently, individuals under full retirement age who earn above specific income limits may see a reduction in their Social Security benefits. This legislation aims to recognize and support the contributions of these essential workers during the COVID-19 pandemic by preventing a reduction in their benefits due to temporary earnings.
