Strengthening Social Security
The U.S. Chamber believes that a secure retirement for American workers is fundamental to the country’s growth and continued prosperity. Unfortunately, it's becoming clear that the current Social Security system cannot provide such security for much longer.
The only permanent way to strengthen Social Security is to transform the system. That is why the U.S. Chamber strongly supports Social Security reform that allows younger workers to invest a portion of their tax contributions in individually managed accounts.
