GRS Presents at Spring MAPERS Conference

Jamal Adora and Casey Ahlbrandt-Rains will present the session “The Big Question: Where is Social Security, And Where is it Going?” at the 2022 Michigan Association of Public Employee Retirement Systems’ (MAPERS) spring conference. 

The presenters will discuss the underlying design principles of social security, its funding mechanism, the challenges the program faces, and potential changes to the program.  The session will focus on public sector participation and history alongside the law, including a comparison of defined benefit pensions and social security and legislation such as the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO).
