Plain-English Summary

The proposal would increase the amount of money that people with disabilities can save in ABLE accounts without losing their Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits, which provide cash assistance to low-income individuals with disabilities. Currently, SSI recipients must keep their savings below a certain limit or risk losing their benefits, but this change would raise that limit to allow them to build up more financial security. The adjustment would help disabled workers and their families better prepare for future expenses while maintaining their government assistance.
