For a year now, seniors have been speculating about the 2024 cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) — but could their wait for insights about this big event be pushed forward even further?

We’ve discussed the possibility of a government shutdown previously. This, along with other topics like the debt ceiling and default, could have an impact on Social Security.

It is possible that a shutdown could delay the 2024 COLA announcement. This would potentially lead to delays on the rightful increase seniors have earned. It’s another situation where seniors could be treated unfairly.

Let’s ensure we make retirees a priority. Our petition aims to make fair COLAs a yearly tradition. Debt, shutdown, and other circumstances shouldn’t stop retirees from getting back what they’ve paid in.
