>> thank you very much, chairman larson. i think what andrew biggs was getting at was there's a possibility that for this one year, 2020, at the cost of living adjustment will be larger than the change in average wage and that is likely to be the case. the latest trustee's report estimated issues cost-of-living adjustment would be 2.3%. it looks as though the data are suggesting might be somewhat less than the full percent, probably still positive. much to be determined on that. where as the average wage index series is expected to probably go down. however, i'm not sure of my good friend andrew biggs was recommended to him that just for the one year or doing it in deathly. if we were to change the benefit structure so that from one generation to the next the benefit structure increased by price levels instead of by the average wage, that would result in about a one, 1.2% slower growth rate in benefit levels going four for all future generations. that would cost will refer to as -- the rates to decline over the two the rate

larson and i and others have been wanting to put a plan on the table.the act provides a fix to the natch problem and some improvements for all americans by expanding benefits on an emergency basis during this pandemic. again, a critical benefit coming at an absolutely critical time. i wonder if you might comment and just explain to us in clear terms what you think the consequences of congress not acting on this legislation might be. both in terms of the notch issue, but importantly, the consequences for americans trying to navigate this pandemic. i think we've got to unmute you somehow. >> okay. >> can you hear me? >> i think under the best of circumstances, it is very difficult to bring an issue like this into in a way that will lead to enacting legislation to solve a problem and this is a problem. it's so tied to the recession that i think this is the time to act and i'm not a san begin. soquinn. some members of the committee are, that we can wait. this may not have an impact on benefits. until 2022. the word notch, i remember the last time the congre

. >> good afternoon, chairman larson and members of the subcommittee. my name is melanie campbell and i'm the president and ceo of the national coalition on black civic participation and also the convener of the black women's roundtable, women and girls empowerment arm of the national coalition. as a former recipient of social security survivors benefits, i'm keenly aware of how vital these benefits are through the economic well being and stability of families. i remember how important it was for me to receive survivor benefits when my father passed away from a chronic respiratory illness, one month after i started college as a freshman at clark college, now called clark atlanta university. i can remember how difficult it was for my mother who was a public school teacher to figure out how to support me and two of my siblings who were also in college at the time. i also remember how difficult it was for me financially, when i lost my social security survivor benefits due to policy changes and my federal student aid was reduced due to the current administ

. >> thank you, chairman larson. thank you for holding this important hearing. i want to thank our witnesses for coming to the subcommittee and sharing your thoughts on this subject. covid has created an unprecedented health and an economic crisis for our country. however, the pandemic does not affect our population equally. the elderly, people of color, women in low-income communities are disproportionately affected. they're also shouldering the burden of keeping our essential services and businesses open and running for all of us. furthermore, these populations are much more likely to be social security beneficiaries. that means it's critical now more than ever that we ensure social security remains strong and its benefits are sufficient to provide an effective security blanket for vulnerable individuals. as we've heard today, the idea of a payroll tax holiday will have a little positive effect in the crisis and a long term affect on social security. what we in congress have gone to great links to assure businesses can stay afloat, it's never been at the expen
