Social Security benefits can be reduced for some retirees who work. How that may change

A new bill in Congress would eliminate the Social Security retirement earnings test, which currently reduces benefits for some workers under retirement age. The proposal is a legislative/policy change with potential implications for retirees and the federal budget, but the article provides no vote count, cost estimate, or near-term market catalyst. Overall impact is limited and mostly policy-related.
