Hour 1: The Social Security trust fund is projected to deplete its reserves by late 2032

This hour, the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act (H.R. 979) took a major step forward when the U.S. House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed the bipartisan bill by a voice vote. The legislation now heads to the U.S. Senate for consideration. Newell urges all to call their Senators to support the act.
