Description of Proposed Provision:
B3.2: Beginning with those newly eligible for OASI benefits in 2025, multiply the 90 and 32 percent PIA factors each year by 0.9925 and 0.982, respectively. Stop reductions after 2062. Beginning with those newly eligible for OASI benefits in 2020, multiply the 15 factor by 0.982. Stop reduction of the 15 factor after 2057. Disabled workers are: (a) not affected prior to normal retirement age; and (b) subject to a proportional reduction in benefits, based on the worker's years of disability, upon conversion to retired-worker beneficiary status. Child beneficiaries and spouses with a child in care under the OASI program are not affected by this proposal.
