What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Save Our Seniors Act" or the "SOS Act," proposes to amend the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974. It focuses on increasing transparency regarding the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund and the Disability Insurance Trust Fund. The legislation would require the Congressional Budget Office to provide specific information to Congress. This information would involve a comparison of assumed amounts and actual outlays from these trust funds. The comparison must be expressed in a graph format.
