Sec. 304.

The Social Security system is vital to the well-being of the Nation’s elderly and disabled citizens and currently provides benefits to about 35 million Americans.

The Social Security system faces serious short-term and long-term financing problems that jeopardize the payment of benefits.

It is essential that Congress act forthrightly to address the Social Security financing problem and to restore the American people’s confidence in the system.

Any resolution to this problem will have come as a result of a bipartisan effort.

It is the sense of the Congress that Congress should carefully study all options in order to find the most equitable solution to insuring the fiscal integrity of the system.

That Congress shall not precipitously and unfairly reduce early retirees’ benefits.

That Congress will enact reforms necessary to ensure the short-term and long-term solvency of the Social Security system but will not support reductions in benefits which exceed those necessary to achieve a financially sound system and the well being of all retired Americans.

Sec. 305.

None of the funds in the Act shall be used to prevent or

Surplus agricultural commodities, sale.
