What this bill would do

This bill establishes the Commission on Long-Term Social Security Solvency. The Commission is tasked with creating recommendations and proposed legislation to ensure the solvency of the Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund and the Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund for at least 75 years. The Commission consists of 13 members appointed by various congressional leaders and the President. It is authorized to receive official data, hire a Director and staff, and contract with agencies. Once the Commission submits its report, a specific process is triggered for the expedited consideration of its recommendations. The Act also includes provisions for how an "approval bill" containing these recommendations is introduced and passed through both Houses of Congress.
