I understand that the current marriage penalty creates significant challenges for individuals on Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and others with disabilities. No one should have to choose between love and financial stability, especially regarding essential healthcare needs.

My plan is to advocate for reforms that eliminate the marriage penalty by adjusting eligibility criteria and benefit calculations for SSDI recipients. This would ensure that married couples do not face a reduction in benefits simply due to their marital status. We must create a system that allows individuals with disabilities to build meaningful relationships without the fear of losing vital support.

Additionally, I will work towards enhancing access to affordable healthcare and prescription medications for all disabled individuals, ensuring that financial concerns do not dictate personal choices. By addressing these issues, we can uphold the dignity of every person while promoting stability and love in our communities.
