Statement of U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao At
Meeting of Social Security and Medicare Board of Trustees
WASHINGTON U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao released
the following statement after today's meeting of the Social Security and
Medicare Board of Trustees:
"Today's report reinforces the sobering message that unless a solution
is enacted soon, the Baby Boomers' retirements will bust Social Security.
"As the President is urging and this report attests: we need a
permanent and swift solution so that future generations can count on Social
Security to be there for them too."
