Bill in US Congress

Support the SSI Restoration Act in the US House of Representatives (HR-3763)- It would increase the general income disregard to $123 a month, the earned income disregard to $399 and increase the asset limits to $10,000 an individual and $20,000 a couple for SSI recipients. It would also make it easier for SSI recipients to marry. We could use a improvement in our lives.

So it just needs 50% approval in the house and senate?

I think it would need majority approval in the House and probably 50% approval in the Senate (a majority if the Vice President doesn’t approve as she would be the tie-breaking vote.)

I’m not sure it’s true anymore that extended families filled in the gaps, or the cracks in the system.

I know for me, I could never live with my mom and step-dad, no way in hell, maybe my daughter, but wouldn’t want to burden her.

I wouldn’t count on it. We’ll see what happens. I know we are in for a good cost of living adjustment in 2022.

I feel sorry for those of you in the US who aren’t from wealthy families.
