Protecting and Improving the Social
Security Program
WASHINGTON - Tomorrow, key stakeholders will hold a press conference
highlighting the Social Security Program Protection Act of 2002, which is
slated for floor action later that day.
The Social Security program has increasingly become the target of fraud
and abuse. With $465 billion in benefits sent out last year, it is vitally
important that the program appropriately delivers funds to its proper
beneficiaries. This week, lawmakers will vote on legislation intended to
ensure the integrity of the Social Security program.
