RESOLUTION NO. 75-30
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
COSTA MESA, CALIFORNIA, REQUESTING THE EARNINGS
LIMITATIONS UNDER SOCIAL SECURITY BE REPEALED.
WHEREAS, there are more than two and a half million Americans who
are 65 years old or over, and are eligible for Social Security payments;
and
WHEREAS, these people are victims of a very special inequity in
our Social Security System imposed on persons who prefer to work and
earn more than the $2,400.00 per year allowed; and
WHEREAS, these Americans have worked and paid for these Social
Security benefits and are entitled to receive them; and
WHEREAS, with the cost of living at the highest in the history of
the Nation, it is practically impossible to live on the Social Security
payments and the $2,400.00 per year allowed a person to earn while
receiving Social Security benefits;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Costa Mesa that the earnings limitation under the Social Security Act be
immediately repealed.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Clerk is directed to send
copies of this Resolution to the President of the United States, the
United States Senators and Congressmen representing this district, the
League of California Cities, and all cities in Orange County.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 18th day of March, 1975.
