Raul Labrador of Idaho, who removed himself from the bipartisan group that was writing the House's version of the bill.

They also propose to reduc cost of living adjustments for all Social Security recipients, a group of Americans who have seen traditional pensions eliminated and savings devastated by the Great Recession — and who rely more and more on our Social Security system, into which they paid during their entire working lives.
