Today’s Story

The Senior Citizens League (TSCL) projects a 2.1% cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for Social Security beneficiaries in 2026, a decrease from the 2.5% adjustment in 2025 and the 3.2% in 2024. This anticipated reduction reflects a slowdown in inflation rates, which directly influences COLA calculations. 

While lower inflation eases some financial pressures, many retirees continue to face challenges with rising living costs. It's crucial for retirees to monitor these adjustments and plan their budgets accordingly to maintain financial stability.
