from West Virginia Morning · host West Virginia Public Broadcasting

Social Security began 91 years ago when President Franklin Roosevelt signed it into law. Since then, it has provided a social safety net to Americans, allowing many of them to retire with dignity, according to John Hishta, senior vice president of campaigns with AARP. But many experts say that without some action, social security benefits will have to be reduced by 20% in 2032. News Director Eric Douglas sat down with Hishta to understand the situation. The post The Future Of Social Security Benefits, This West Virginia Morning appeared first on West Virginia Public Broadcasting.
