Larson, Patient Advocate Highlight Harmful Draft Social Security Rule
Press Release
Issues: Entitlements and the Safety Net
Today, Rep. John B. Larson (CT-01) and patient advocate Peter Morley released a video highlighting how harmful the Trump Administration's proposed Social Security disability rule would be. The rule would unnecessarily and significantly increase continuing disability reviews (CDR), to determine whether Social Security disability beneficiaries have medically improved. These reviews can be extremely difficult for Americans with disabilities to navigate and can lead to loss of benefits -- Social Security, Supplemental Security Income, and Medicare -- when individuals are unable to complete this complex process, even though they continue to meet eligibility criteria.
