Supplemental Security Income Restoration Act of 2026

This bill, introduced by Senator Elizabeth Warren, proposes to amend the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program under the Social Security Act. SSI provides monthly cash assistance to elderly, blind, and disabled individuals with limited income and resources. The bill would modify eligibility requirements for this program, though the specific changes are not detailed in the available information.

If enacted, this legislation could affect millions of Americans who rely on SSI benefits. The changes to eligibility rules could potentially expand or modify who qualifies for assistance, though the exact nature and scope of these modifications would depend on the specific provisions in the bill's text. Currently, the bill is in the early stages of the legislative process, having been referred to committee for consideration, and has not yet been voted on by the full Senate.
