The Social Security Act of 1935 established a federal old-age pension, financed through employee-employer payroll taxes. Since its inception, Congress has amended the Social Security program multiple times to achieve various goals. These amendments have expanded coverage, adjusted the minimum age for retirement benefits, introduced automatic cost-of-living adjustments to benefits, and addressed concerns about the solvency of the Social Security trust funds.
