Trump Administration Moving To Shrink Disability Benefits For Some Recipients
The Supplemental Security Income program is stuck in a petty tug-of-war between administrations.

Thousands of people on federal disability benefits got an extra few hundred dollars per month thanks to President Joe Biden, and now, thanks to President Donald Trump, it looks like that extra cash may go away.
The Trump administration has given notice that it plans to rescind a change finalized last year allowing more Supplemental Security Income beneficiaries to receive full benefits even if they live with someone who helps them with food or shelter.
Supplemental Security Income, often known as SSI or disability, offers a maximum benefit of just $967 per month, with a third taken away from recipients receiving “in-kind support and maintenance,” such as help with groceries or rent, from a roommate or family member.
The Biden administration finalized a rule last year saying it wouldn’t count in-kind support against SSI recipients if other people in the household are receiving federal food benefits, a change the administration said would grant full benefits to nearly 300,000 SSI recipients and make another 100,000 people newly eligible for the program.
