Martha Shedden, president and cofounder of the National Association of Registered Social Security Analysts (NARSSA), told Newsweek: “H.R. 82, known as the Social Security Fairness Act of 2023, will do away with the WEP and GPO pension rules that affect the amounts of Social Security some individuals can collect … The WEP and GPO rules apply to certain government, state, local jobs—often teachers—who are receiving a pension for their work in those jobs, but their employers do not contribute payroll taxes into Social Security.”
