Latest from US Social Security changes everything: many Americans tremble

United States Social Security makes it clear to all of America: Changes are coming that affect millions of people

In 2025, Social Security in the United States faces significant changes that affect millions of citizens, especially retirees, parents, and workers. The Social Security Administration has announced adjustments to taxes and benefits. While Congress debates the controversial law known as "One Big Beautiful Bill" (OBBB), concern is growing among the population.

Urgent Notice from the U.S. SSA: The "One Big Beautiful Bill" Law and Its Implications

The SSA has increased the maximum income limit subject to Social Security taxes from $168,600 to $176,100. This change means that higher-earning workers will contribute more to the system, aiming to strengthen its sustainability in the face of an aging population.

The OBBB legislative proposal seeks to extend 2017 tax cuts and reduce spending on social programs such as Medicaid and SNAP. Among its measures, it includes stricter work requirements to access Medicaid, cuts to food benefits, and the elimination of certain tax deductions. 

In addition, it proposes increasing the child tax credit to $2,500 until 2028 and raising the SALT deduction limit from $10,000 to $40,000 for taxpayers with incomes below $500,000.

More Than 7 Million People Could Lose Access to Medicaid

These reforms could leave millions of Americans without medical coverage and reduce food assistance for low-income families. According to estimates, more than 7 million people could lose access to Medicaid due to the new requirements. The cuts to SNAP would also affect rural and urban communities that rely on this program for their daily food.

The administration defends these changes as necessary to balance the budget and ensure that benefits reach those who truly need them. They argue that the cuts will eliminate fraud and focus resources on the most vulnerable citizens.

Citizens' Reactions: Clear and Direct

Many Americans express concern about the possible consequences of these reforms. Community organizations and local leaders warn about the increase in poverty and food insecurity. The uncertainty caused by these changes has led to protests and calls for lawmakers to reconsider the proposed measures.

Overall, the modifications to Social Security and the OBBB law proposal have created a climate of unease among American citizens, who fear for their well-being and that of their families.
