Petition to Congress: Increase the Income Threshold Limits on which Social Security Benefits are Taxed

Social Security benefits are subject to federal income tax if a recipient's total income exceeds certain thresholds. These thresholds have not been adjusted for inflation since they were first set in 1983 and 1993, meaning more retirees are paying taxes on their benefits over time.

Increasing the income thresholds for taxing Social Security benefits would provide immediate relief to retirees, allowing them to keep more of their hard-earned benefits. Adjusting these limits for inflation would restore fairness to the system and ensure Social Security remains a reliable source of income for seniors. Congress should act to update these outdated thresholds to reflect the modern cost of living.

The Senior Citizens League will gather online and print petitions to advocate collectively to Congress for raising the income threshold for taxing Social Security benefits.
