With a strong 76-20 vote, the Social Security Fairness Act is headed to @POTUS for his signature! Outstanding work by the @IAFFofficial & its grassroots effort to get HR82 to the finish line! Cheers to the Congressional members & the diverse group who fought for what’s right!

This is great, but it’s NOT SIGNED yet. @POTUS, please don’t delay, 40 years is far too long.
It’s official! The Social Security Fairness Act has passed the Senate, and the WEP/GPO is repealed.

The Social Security Fairness Act just passed the Senate. This is HUGE for millions of public retirees - teachers, police officers, firefighters, etc. This bill has been introduced in every Congress since 2001 and we got it done. It’s a cool story. 🧵⬇️

🚨 BREAKING NEWS — The U.S. Senate JUST voted to send my bipartisan #SocialSecurityFairnessAct to the president's desk to repeal the WEP and the GPO — two provisions that slash the hard-earned retirement benefits of our nation’s public servants.

@SenateGPO these amendments for #HR82 are unacceptable, unfair & discriminatory! #NoAmendments Police, firefighters, teachers, cooks, school bus drivers, expats etc. are NOT responsible for ensuring that the Social Security system is solvent!
These are unacceptable amendments for H.R 82! @SenTedCruz @ChuckGrassley make it even more convoluted with the text and clause qualifiers for individuals to receive their full vested Social Security benefit. It makes it so much worse, and basically kills the benefit on repealing

Please @SenTedCruz remove your amendment from the #SocialSecurityFairnessAct. This vitally important bipartisan bill even has the support of @realDonaldTrump. @SenateGOP @RepealWEP_GPO @SenSusanCollins
Thank you, President-elect Trump, @realDonaldTrump, for supporting the #SocialSecurityFairnessAct. You've shown that you genuinely care for public service workers and the middle class. @SenateGOP @GLFOP

@RepealWEP_GPO @Kaye880141 @SenatorRounds @SenMarcoRubio @SenEricSchmitt @SenatorTimScott @SenDanSullivan @SenJohnThune @SenThomTillis @SenTuberville @SenatorWicker @SenToddYoung Mathematically flawed and discriminatory, the WEP/GPO calculations are confiscating benefits from retirees. Social Security earned through work before, during, and after public service is unjustly penalized for 3% of Americans who are targeted only because they served the public.
