I am a DAC,who receives survivors benifits from my deceased father's record. I was born with a Genetic collagen disease, that is degenerative and has no cure. I am 54 and would like to exercise my rights, as an American ,the freedom of marriage, without penalty! As current laws,would cause me to loose my supporting income/medical if I were to marry, as I desperately desire

Taking away someone's financial and health security simply because they marry an abled bodied adult is rather twistednon the part of the US Government. Time to change the law.

Penalizing a disabled person for marrying is not equal rights! This is discrimination against disabled Americans!

This law is against civil liberties and needs to change. People with disabilities should be able to continue to receive full benefits after marrying.

Whatever the reason, this portion of the SSI law was written poorly. I hope it wasn't intentional, but the way we view folks with disabilities has/is/will changed/changing/change. Help us get this rectified NOW.
