Finance Committee Reschedules Hearing for Social Security Commissioner
October 2, 2001
The Senate Finance Committee will hold a hearing on Thursday, October 4 to consider
the nomination of Jo Anne Barnhart to be Social Security Commissioner. Some labor unions
have been pressuring Democrats on the committee to confront Barnhart over her support for
individual accounts. In the wake of September 11, the hearing is likely to be far less contentious
than once thought, but the issue of Social Security reform is still likely to come up.
