The Internal Revenue Service has reconsidered a decision that could have caused lower-income military retirees to lose federal benefits.

Sens. Thom Tillis, a North Carolina Republican, and Elizabeth Warren, a Massachusetts Democrat, were behind the change.

The two senators co-authored a letter in October explaining the impact that an IRS change to the Federal Payment Levy Program could have on military payments.

Ever since I first ran for Senate, I pinky swear with all the little girls I meet & tell them: "I'm Elizabeth Warren & I'm running for the U.S. Senate, because that's what girls do." 26 days until Election Day. Time to fight like a girl. #DayOfTheGirl

I was happy to join my friend @ayannapressley at @claytonstateuniv yesterday to support the next governor of Georgia, @staceyabrams! We’re all in for Stacey because she fights from the heart for students, women, seniors, and working people across Georgia. And people are fired up in Georgia to help Stacey win – we could feel it. If you’re in Georgia, don’t just vote for Stacey Abrams – volunteer. And if you’re not, chip in to support the incredible grassroots work happening door-to-door, phone-to-phone, person-to-person in communities all across the state. We need you in this fight: staceyabrams.com #gagov #teamabrams

40 million people in America have hearing loss – but many of them can’t afford a hearing aid. I came up with a bipartisan bill to allow hearing aids to be sold over-the-counter, and Donald Trump signed it into law. Washington is deeply broken, but sometimes we can still work together to get things done – and this bill will make a huge difference for people in Massachusetts and all across the country.
