About 1 million Californians on SSI/SSP should not have to choose between food, shelter, and medicine, yet the price of these basic needs exceeds the SSI/SSP grants in ALL counties. Support increasing #SSI so we can afford to live! #CAbudget   Senator Caroline Menjivar Senator Shannon Grove

SSI’s outdated savings penalities keep millions of disabled & older ppl from saving money and getting out of poverty. Urge your MOC to change this by supporting the SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act. Use our simple form to take action: bit.ly/3Itp66z #UpdateSSI

“While we fight Trump’s cruel attacks on Medicaid and the Social Security promised to those we care for, we will also create the additional safety net needed to keep our loved ones from being forced onto the street,” Arnulfo De La Cruz, Pres. SEIU Local 2015 seiuca.org/press-releases…

FACT CHECK: The entire state is not “under investigation.” This is a state-funded program — started under Republican Governor Pete Wilson — that’s administered at the county level.

We urge Young Kim Rep. David Valadao Rep. Ken Calvert Rep. Doug LaMalfa to protect #SNAP and #Medicaid. Cuts to these programs would increase hunger & sickness among older adults and ppl w/ disabilities, 64% of CA’s SSI recipients are on SNAP & all are on Medicaid. ca4ssi.org/the-latest

Newsom has proposed restoring a $2,000 limit on an individual’s assets — including savings accounts and property other than a home and a car — and $3,000 for couples to qualify for Medi-Cal. cal.news/3SqmPxC

👂Young Kim Rep. David Valadao Rep. Ken Calvert 64% of CA’s SSI recipients are on #SNAP & all are on #Medicaid. Californians rely on Medi-Cal, SNAP, & other programs that keep people secure, nourished, & healthy. There's still time to protect our programs & our families!

Seniors are facing hunger in every state — and #SNAP is a vital lifeline. But Congress is proposing historic cuts that would take food off their tables. Tell your lawmakers: #ProtectSNAP. Protect our older neighbors! Take Action Now! 👉 bit.ly/4kkc8cb

Thank you Governor Gavin Newsom and #CALeg for preserving SSI/SSP grants in the state budget. SSI/SSP was created to protect our most vulnerable from poverty; CA must fulfill this promise by increasing grant levels in the 2026-27 budget. Full statement here: ca4ssi.org/the-latest
