A trust fund that helps pay Social Security benefits for more than 60 million retirees and family members is expected to run out of money in 2032. <\/p>

The Supreme Court is in its final stretch this term. Here are the major cases left<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n

Unless Congress makes changes by then, seniors will see an automatic cut in their monthly benefits of 22%, according to a report released Tuesday by Social Security Trustees. <\/p>

“The Trustees recommend that lawmakers address the projected trust fund shortfalls in a timely way to phase in necessary changes gradually and give workers and beneficiaries time to adjust,” the report says. <\/p>

The forecast shows the trust fund will be exhausted three months earlier than was predicted last year. Social Security’s finances are challenged by a falling birth rate, reduced immigration and the tax cut passed by the Republican Congress last year. Those moves are partially offset by stronger productivity gains. <\/p>

The basic challenge for Social Security is demographic. Baby boomers are retiring at a rapid pace, and there are fewer younger workers paying into the system for every senior collecting monthly benefits. <\/p>

Congress could patch the shortfall by raising taxes, reducing benefits or some combination of the two. <\/p>

Otherwise, beneficiaries will see their monthly payments cut automatically. <\/p>

“Nationally, the average monthly cut would total $500, which is more than what the average retired household spends on groceries each month,” said a report from the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. <\/p>
