A significant number of U.S. Representatives are advocating for the elimination of the cap on Social Security contributions, highlighting that millionaires will cease paying into Social Security for the rest of the year as of this Saturday, while working and middle-class Americans continue to contribute with each paycheck. They argue that removing the cap, which currently applies only to the first $168,600 of income, would ensure that the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share and strengthen Social Security for all Americans. The Social Security 2100 Act, cosponsored by some of these representatives, aims to protect and expand Social Security benefits. Critics, including some Republicans, are accused of wanting to cut benefits instead of making the wealthy contribute more.
Did you know that high earners only pay social security tax on the first $168,600 they make in a year? If millionaires paid into Social Security at the same rate as the rest of us, we could afford to protect and expand benefits for everyone. It’s time to #ScrapTheCap
This weekend, the rich will stop paying into #SocialSecurity for the year. I’m a proud cosponsor of the #SocialSecurity2100 Act because it’s time to #ScrapTheCap and enhance benefits for everyday Louisianians. @RepLarson https://t.co/4JzJERroZL
Rather than make the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share, Republicans are fast-tracking a commission to cut your benefits. It’s time to #ScrapTheCap to make the wealthy pay their fair share and protect #SocialSecurity.
Starting Saturday, millionaires won't pay into Social Security for the rest of the year. That's unacceptable. I back @RepJohnLarson's Social Security 2100 Act to fix this so the wealthy pay all year, like everyone, boosting fairness & stabilizing the program. #ScrapTheCap

Did you know that millionaires only pay into Social Security for part of the year? Their contributions for the year stop THIS Saturday. That’s not right. I cosponsor @repjohnlarson’s Social Security 2100 Act to protect and expand Social Security benefits for the future. https://t.co/S6ppcZ8H4z

Millionaire earners are about to stop contributing to Social Security for the rest of 2024. The ultra-wealthy finished on January 1. Meanwhile, working- and middle-class Americans contribute all year long. It's time to change that and #ScrapTheCap! https://t.co/AjZu7Poqt7
Any politician or pundit who says we “can’t afford” to protect and expand Social Security is lying. Social Security is fully affordable if we require the wealthiest to contribute their fair share. #ScrapTheCap https://t.co/N1y3GYFBiW
