Debate Intensifies Over Potential Social Security Benefit Cuts for Older Americans
The Trump administration proposes changes to Social Security disability rules that could make it harder for older Americans, especially those in their 50s and 60s, to qualify for benefits by removing age as a factor, sparking concerns about increased hardship for vulnerable workers. Critics argue this could disproportionately impact those with legitimate claims, while supporters say it aligns with longer lifespans and workforce changes. The proposal is part of ongoing political debates over Social Security's future.
