What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill requires the Social Security Administration to change the names it uses for different retirement ages. Instead of calling age 62 the "early eligibility age," it must call it the "minimum monthly benefit age." Instead of calling the age when you can get full benefits the "full retirement age" or "normal retirement age," it must call it the "standard monthly benefit age." Instead of referring to "delayed retirement credits" for people who wait until age 70 to claim benefits, it must call age 70 the "maximum monthly benefit age" and cannot use the term "delayed retirement credit."
