Wep Update 2024 Vakantie. The house approved the bill 325 to 75 and ultimately reversed the windfall elimination provision (wep) and the government pension offset (gpo) provision. The wep reduces a social security benefit the person earned through other employment—typically before or after a federal career but in some cases during a career.

Adjusted for inflation in 2025 dollars, the added lifetime cuts resulting from wep and gpo repeal would be less than $20,000. The gpo and wep are two separate provisions that reduce regular social security benefits for workers and family members if they receive pensions based on earnings.
