Reintroduce protections for seniors facing Social Security overpayments

Frankel plans to reintroduce legislation to prevent the Social Security Administration from withholding a senior’s entire benefit check to repay an overpayment when the senior was not at fault. She says the bill would prevent a future administration from using that repayment approach.

Context: The passage does not give the bill’s text or specify what repayment rules it would establish instead. Reported in a 2026 candidate interview/guide; the exact original statement date is not established.

In their own words

I plan to reintroduce this legislation to ensure no future Administration could make such an unfair move again.
