The U.S. Senate passed a bill early Saturday that would boost Social Security benefits for millions of Americans. The legislation would repeal the windfall elimination provision (WEP) and the government pension offset (GPO).

The Senate voted early Saturday morning to repeal two laws that prevent many public employees from receiving Social Security, a move that is expected to weigh on the overall solvency of the Social Security system.

The bill, which heads to President Biden’s desk, repeals provisions that reduce benefits for thousands of public services workers in CT.
