US Social Security bill: Lawmaker wants full retirement benefits at 60 for workers in physically demanding roles

Representative Haley Stevens introduced a bill to allow workers in physically demanding jobs to retire at 60. Currently, the full retirement age is 67, which poses challenges for laborers. The bill aims to provide Social Security benefits earlier for those in occupations like construction and nursing. It offers a weighted points system to determine eligibility based on years worked in such jobs.
