  • In this week's video message, Executive Director Leo Sarkissian provides an overview of the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Restoration Act and its reintroduction by Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH).
    The Supplemental Security Income Restoration Act (SSI) is being reintroduced for this Congressional session. As Senator Brown stated in 2021, “The promise of Social Security is to ensure that no one in America should live in poverty - least of all our nation's seniors and people with disabilities. By updating SSI we can deliver on this promise and ensure disabled and elderly Ohioans are able to live with dignity. Congress must prioritize these long-overdue reforms as part of upcoming recovery legislation.”

    The Government Also Needs too Take in Account of What a Person on SSI & SSDI Pays Out on His or Her Check when they receive it. Some people have besides Rent, Loans, Utilities bill, Car upkeep if you have One. Clothing, House Hold Goods, & Especially, " FOOD, nuff-said.!!

    They might as well pass it because people are going to fight the system just to survive.

    SSI needs major repairs, no one can pay for all household expenses on what they receive. These small increases every year are a huge joke ($30-to $50), no changes have been made since the 1980’s to this problem which is just ridiculous for our government to not keep up with the problems or make any changes and keep up with the inflation rate etc. most beneficiaries I knew and myself believe in major changes to the program. But we sure can’t count on our government, they only help themselves and other countries. The American people don’t deserve this at all.

      This bill does nothing to help the poorest people like homeless seniors. Who only receive SSi only because you need 1500 to 1800 a month!😮😢😢😢😢😢

      $1500 to 1800 hundred dollars is not enough for an apartment and the rent for a house. The government has been completely disrespectful to the Americans who have to be on these programs. The beneficiaries have to have a larger increase to be able to pay for them. Don’t count on the government to help!

      @@emilylovell5976My question is factual not negative although I can see how it could be inadvertently viewed that way. I have hope there is a possibility it could be passed but judging from the past - some of the bill may pass, none at all, or the entire thing. We must wait and see what unfolds in the coming months.

    The most impactful part is the raised amount to the poverty level rather than 25 per cent below as present. They should also consider making states stop reducing food stamps based on cola raises.Demanding SSI recipients continuously have to apply for supplemental payments for utilities is unreasonable considering the competition for these grants from able bodied individuals with much higher incomes.

      Your ills and my health and 100,'s of thousands of other people like us fell between the US cracks in life. The bill first appeared in the beginning of the Obama administration and everyone said it sounded like a great idea. I was like amen brother finally a chance to get by in life but it just sat somewhere until 2017' when it was reintroduced in Congress and all of these sites made big ad revenue on us SSI and SSDI people barely eking out a living and again in 2021' it's almost here great news and made more money on videos like this one and now again in 2023' was supposed to be March now it's pushed back till may and probably June and then what? More B-S videos with ads so these people can get Rich at our expense. I'll believe it when I see it 👀
