A resolution establishing a process to assure the long-term fiscal stability of the Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund and the Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund.

This Senate resolution sets up a process for Congress to consider legislation so that the two Social Security trust funds can pay 100 percent of scheduled benefits for at least 50 years. By August 10, 2026, the Senate Majority Leader would form a bipartisan working group of 12 Senators, with up to 8 optional House members, to gather public input and hold listening sessions. The group would report by October 1, 2026, with at least 2 separate legislative proposals. One proposal would be introduced in the Senate by November 9, 2026, and would follow fast-track rules: a 30-hour debate limit, only certified substitute amendments allowed, and a three-fifths vote required for passage.
