Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives against reductions
in Social Security benefits and arbitrary reductions in the Consumer
Price Index.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
APRIL 24, 1997
Mr. SANDERS (for himself, Ms. WATERS, Mr. GEJDENSON, Mr. PALLONE, Mr.
DELLUMS, Mr. FILNER, and Ms. CHRISTIAN-GREEN) submitted the fol-
lowing resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Ways and
Means, and in addition to the Committee on Education and the
Workforce, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker,
in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the juris-
diction of the committee concerned
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives against
reductions in Social Security benefits and arbitrary re-
ductions in the Consumer Price Index.
Whereas for over 60 years the old-age, survivors, and disabil-
ity insurance program under title II of the Social Secu-
rity Act has been the most successful universal social in-
surance program in the world;
Whereas 44 million Americans today receive benefits from
such program;
Whereas two-thirds of beneficiaries under such program rely
on such program as their primary source of income, and
•HRES 132 IH
one-fourth of them rely on it for 90 percent of their in-
come;
Whereas half of senior citizens have yearly incomes of less
than $15,000;
Whereas over half of the beneficiaries under such program
would be forced to live in poverty without their benefits
from such program;
Whereas millions of beneficiaries under such program rely
upon annual cost-of-living adjustments, which are derived
from the Consumer Price Index prescribed from time to
time by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the Depart-
ment of Labor, in order to ensure that their purchasing
power is not eroded by inflation;
Whereas a 1994 calculation based on an experimental index
for the elderly designed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics
has found that the Consumer Price Index may under-
state, not overstate, inflation for the elderly due to their
disproportionate expenditures for rising health costs; and
Whereas many Americans live on a fixed income which is pro-
tected from inflation only by the Consumer Price Index:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Rep-
resentatives that—
(1) the 105th Congress should not consider any
proposal for reducing benefits under the old-age,
survivors, and disability insurance program under
title II of the Social Security Act; and
(2) the Congress should consider neither pro-
posals for arbitrary reductions in the Consumer
•HRES 132 IH
Price Index nor proposals for any transfer of the re-
sponsibility for establishing, maintaining, or adjust-
ing the Consumer Price Index to an outside, politi-
cally appointed commission, but rather should en-
sure that the accuracy and integrity of the
Consumer Price Index continue to be maintained by
the professional economists of the Bureau of Labor
Statistics in the Department of Labor.
