SOS Act
HR 6853, the SOS Act, requires the Congressional Budget Office to include a new graph in annual reports about Social Security trust funds. The graph must compare projected payments under a 1985 law (section 257(b)(1)) with actual outlays from current law. This procedural bill affects how Congress reports on Social Security funding, adding transparency about payment assumptions versus current spending. It does not change eligibility or benefit amounts for seniors or disability recipients.
