Can Social Security Be Reformed?

Without Social Security, the largest single source of income among Americans aged 65 and older, millions of people would fall below the poverty line. But the program now pays out much more than it takes in—and seniors face a mandatory benefit cut in the next decade if nothing is done. What solutions will reform Social Security both for short-term stability and long-term solvency?   Join Steve Odland and guest Dr. Lori Esposito Murray, Former President, Committee for Economic Development, to find out why this long-standing issue hasn’t been addressed sooner, why Congress may be more ready to tackle it now, and what solutions might just work.
