  5. Republican calls to "reform" #Social #Security got fresh attention when the House Republican Study Committee (RSC), which includes more than 170 GOP lawmakers, released a #budget #plan this week calling for “modest adjustments to the retirement age for future retirees to account for increases in life expectancy.”

    Advocates of #raising the Social Security #retirement #age in the past have proposed raising it from 67 to 69, though the RSC budget did not cite specific numbers.

    The RSC budget also called for #lowering #benefits for the highest-earning beneficiaries, an idea proponents call “means testing.”

  6. Call it an escape valve, an off-ramp or a break-glass-in-case-of-emergency option.

    From Pennsylvania Avenue to Wall Street to Main Street, those anxious about the political #impasse over #raising the federal #debt #limit are eying an arcane, seldom successful congressional process known as a #discharge #petition as a possible solution to ward off a disastrous default.
    The petition is just what its name implies: a signed demand, in this case bearing the #signatures of a #majority of the #House, that can force consideration on the floor of a certain piece of legislation.
    The demand would be an increase in the federal debt limit — a way of staving off disaster if House Republicans refuse to agree to raise it before the Treasury Department exhausts its legal authority to borrow to pay its creditors this summer.
    But the process is exceedingly difficult, time-consuming and easily derailed. It has been successful only rarely in recent decades, most notably with passage of a campaign finance overhaul in 2002.
    That high degree of difficulty — and the economic threat posed by a federal default — has some #Democrats urging their colleagues in the House to, at minimum, #begin #the #process #soon.
    They see it as a safeguard in the event that dormant debt talks between President Biden and Speaker Kevin McCarthy deteriorate further and the country finds itself on the brink of economic peril with no end in sight this year.
