We are working to ensure that adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities do not face a reduction in their Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits due to marriage. This proposed legislation aims to amend the Social Security Act, effectively eliminating the marriage penalty and supporting the financial independence and stability of married individuals with disabilities.
