Recently introduced bills – S.2089 & HR.1601 – would change asset limits for people on the SSI program. These bills would also increase income disregards, add inflation adjustments for future years and do away with some of the rules that decrease SSI payments for people who receive additional support from family members.
The Senate bill has been referred to the Committee on Finance, and the House bill to the Committee on Ways and Means.
