SSI needs to be brought up to at least poverty level which is 1,255 a month right now its 943.00. I wrote my Senators; they told me to go to food banks and churches for help. It’s so hard to get approved for disability SS wants you to have a phone and internet to contact them yet they do not figure those costs into your monthly bills. Many of us elderly going to lose our homes. Angry monies go to illegals and other countries while our disabled suffer. I paid into SS but because I was sick, I did not have continuous credits though I have 40 credits. It really needs to be updated.

No one can live on SSI unless they live with family but then they get reduced benefits for living with family
