President Joe Biden signed into law the Social Security Fairness Act. That means nearly 3 million public-sector workers with government pensions will receive larger Social Security benefits, with the average increase estimated at $360 per month.

President Joe Biden signed one of his final pieces of legislation on Sunday, expanding Social Security benefits for millions of retired government workers initially denied these funds.

The Social Security Fairness Act provides a lump-sum payment to over 2.5 million Americans to cover benefits they should've received in 2024.

The law will increase benefits for millions of retirees, but it's still not clear where the added funds will come from.

President Joe Biden signed the Social Security Fairness Act into law, repealing old provisions that reduced the amount of Social Security retirement benefits for public sector workers who receive pensions.

Retired public workers will get check adjustments and retro pay under the recently signed Social Security Fairness Act.
