Proposed Provision: Increase contribution and benefit base (taxable maximum) by an additional 2 percent per year beginning in 2012 until taxable earnings are equal to 90 percent of covered earnings (estimated to occur in 2049). Additional taxable earnings would be credited for the purpose of computing benefits. Create a new bend point equal to the current-law taxable maximum and provide a 5 percent PIA formula factor for AIME above the new bend point.
