U.S. Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio) are calling on \u041a\u043e\u043d\u0433\u0440\u0435\u0441\u0441<\/strong> to shore up Social Security by lifting the cap on wages subject to payroll taxes.<\/p>\n

The proposal comes as policymakers and financial professionals warn of looming funding shortfalls<\/a> and widespread confusion among retirees about how the program works.<\/p>\n

\u0412 essay<\/a> published Tuesday by The New York Times, Warren and Moreno urged Congress to eliminate the Social Security payroll tax cap, currently set at $184,500 for 2026.<\/p>\n

Under current law, workers and employers each pay 6.2% in payroll taxes only on wages up to that threshold.<\/p>\n

Warren and Moreno argue that removing the cap would raise roughly $3 trillion over 10 years and extend the program\u2019s solvency, helping avoid depletion of the \u0421\u043e\u0446\u0438\u0430\u043b\u044c\u043d\u043e\u0435 \u043e\u0431\u0435\u0441\u043f\u0435\u0447\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435<\/a> trust fund by late 2032 and a potential benefit cut of more than 20%.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t agree on everything, but here\u2019s one thing we do agree on: Congress must act now to save Social Security for generations of Americans to come,\u201d Warren and Moreno wrote.<\/p>\n

They said the change would address what they describe as an imbalance in the system, where high earners pay a smaller share of total income into Social Security once they exceed the cap. The senators also framed the issue in terms of fairness across income groups<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a no-brainer: The wealthiest Americans, who have benefited the most from America\u2019s opportunities, should contribute the same percentage of their income as a factory worker in Chillicothe, Ohio, or a teacher in Worcester, Mass.,\u201d they added.<\/p>\n

Trust fund warning, retirement planning<\/h2>\n

The essay cited projections from Social Security trustees showing the program\u2019s main trust fund could be depleted in about six years if Congress does not act.<\/p>\n

After that point, benefits would be automatically reduced by more than 20%, affecting tens of millions of retirees.<\/p>\n

The senators said Social Security remains a foundational \u201ccovenant\u201d between workers and the federal government, financed through payroll contributions made over a lifetime of work.<\/p>\n

At the same time, retirement experts say confusion about Social Security is creating opportunities for broader financial planning discussions.<\/p>\n

During a recent webinar<\/a> hosted by the \u041d\u0430\u0446\u0438\u043e\u043d\u0430\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0430\u044f \u0430\u0441\u0441\u043e\u0446\u0438\u0430\u0446\u0438\u044f \u043a\u0440\u0435\u0434\u0438\u0442\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0432 \u043e\u0431\u0440\u0430\u0442\u043d\u043e\u0439 \u0438\u043f\u043e\u0442\u0435\u043a\u0438 <\/strong>(NRMLA) that featured Thomas Drapala of the National Association of Registered Social Security Analysts<\/strong>, presenters said many Americans lack basic understanding of their future benefits.<\/p>\n

\u201cSocial Security is a universal topic,\u201d Drapala said. \u201cAlmost everyone is going to claim it. Not everyone will get a \u043e\u0431\u0440\u0430\u0442\u043d\u0430\u044f \u0438\u043f\u043e\u0442\u0435\u043a\u0430<\/a>, but many of the same clients qualify for both conversations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Drapala told roughly 160 registrants from 47 companies across 35 states that 51% of Americans do not know how much of their retirement income will come from Social Security, while 42% do not know their expected monthly benefit and 33% are unsure of their full retirement age.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I help my clients with their Social Security, aside from Social Security itself as their main retirement income, a lot of times the other main asset that they have is their home,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd I think it\u2019s all of our jobs as professionals, whether you\u2019re a reverse mortgage agent or whether you deal with Social Security as I do, we\u2019re there to educate clients so that they can live the secure retirement that they\u2019re looking for.\u201d<\/p>\n

Housing, income stability link<\/h2>\n

Speakers at the webinar also said Social Security planning can intersect with housing decisions, particularly for older homeowners who are weighing reverse mortgages as a way to remain in their homes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe general theme is enabling someone, at least from a financial standpoint, to stay in their home indefinitely,\u201d said Chris Downey, senior vice president at Federal Savings Bank<\/strong> and co-chair of NRMLA\u2019s education committee. \u201cYou\u2019ve got to do what is best for the client, not for your sales numbers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Drapala said Social Security can function as a stable income base for fixed expenses, while other tools \u2014 including \u0441\u043e\u0431\u0441\u0442\u0432\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044b\u0439 \u043a\u0430\u043f\u0438\u0442\u0430\u043b<\/a> \u2014 can supplement retirement planning.<\/p>\n
