What this bill would do
This bill, titled the ``No Social Security for Illegal Aliens Act of 2025'', proposes changes to the Social Security Act. It aims to amend Title II to exclude certain wages and income from being used to calculate benefits. Specifically, it targets wages earned by aliens who are not authorized to be employed in the United States. It also targets self-employment income derived from unauthorized functions or services performed by aliens. The bill directs the Commissioner of Social Security to recompute primary insurance amounts to reflect these changes.
