I wanted to start with a question that I'll, I think initially direct to Ms. Wilske and Mr. Morton. One of the disincentives for recipients of SSI to work are asset limits. Of course, The $2,000 asset limit today has a purchasing power of only 630 bucks. And it's a barrier that keeps people who want to work and save out of the labor market. I passed in 2014 the ABLE Act. (00:45–00:53)
CLAIM
Asserts that the purchasing power of the $2,000 asset limit for SSI is now only $630.
