Create a bipartisan commission to propose Social Security and Medicare reforms

LaHood supports a bipartisan commission of House and Senate members that would spend a year developing structural reforms to put Social Security and Medicare on a sustainable path. Congress would then vote directly on the commission’s proposals. He says the reforms should protect current beneficiaries and people who are already retired or near retirement, while preserving benefits for future generations.
