“GROW”-ing Our Way to Social Security Reform?

CAPITOL HILL BRIEFING
Friday, October 14, 2005
12:00 PM

featuring Mike Tanner, Director of Health and Welfare Studies, Cato Institute

B-369 Rayburn House Office Building

With President Bush’s call for comprehensive Social Security reform bogged down in the morass of partisan politics, many reform advocates have suggested smaller steps to get the process started. Recently, leading reformers in both the House and Senate have proposed legislation to rebate Social Security surpluses to workers in the form of contributions to personal accounts. The House is reportedly considering voting on a measure as early as this month. Michael Tanner, director of the Cato Institute’s Project on Social Security Choice, will examine the leading proposals, including S. 1302, the Stop the Raid on Social Security Act of 2005, and H.R. 3304, known as GROW for Growing Real Ownership for Workers. Tanner will discuss how these plans would impact workers, the federal budget, and the ongoing effort for larger reforms.
