With President Biden having eliminated the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO) via the Social Security Fairness Act, some government employees and their spouses will soon receive higher Social Security benefits. On today’s episode, Jason Speciner, CFP®, EA, and Regina Neenan, CFP®,  will discuss what this means for government workers and retirees affected by the WEP and GPO, the Social Security Administration’s trust funds, and your own Social Security benefit — even if you work in the private sector.
