Social Security at 90: Understanding the 2025 Trustees Report

As it marks its 90th anniversary, Social Security has become the cornerstone of economic security in the U.S., providing a suite of insurance that protects workers and their families in the event of retirement, disability, or death. But the program faces a long-term financing gap. According to the 2025 Trustees Report released last week, Social Security's reserves are expected to be depleted in 2034, at which point beneficiaries will see an across-the-board benefit cut if Congress fails to act. On June 26th the Academy held a virtual event featuring Social Security Administration Chief Actuary Karen Glenn and an expert panel unpacking Social Security’s financial outlook, lawmakers’ options for addressing the program’s long-term gap, and Americans’ view on the path forward. Speakers:  Karen Glenn, Social Security Administration, Chief Actuary  Kathleen Romig, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities Joel Eskovitz, AARP  Tracey Gronniger, Justice in Aging  Andrew Biggs, American Enterprise Institute  Rebecca Vallas, National Academy of Social Insurance
