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. buff.ly/IkP11R2 📸 Alisha Jucevic

“It’s not cheap being disabled...I’m really scared. I cannot live without my help.”
Cynde Soto has been on Medi-Cal for most of her life. Recently, she came into a modest inheritance, about $8,000. But it also means that she could lose her state health insurance under a proposal from Gov. Gavin Newsom.

My family relied on food stamps briefly when I was a kid—our country had our back, and all 7 of us kids grew up to give back to our communities. Investing in nutrition assistance? Investing in SNAP? That’s an investment in people, and cutting SNAP won't help anyone.

Older adults & people w/ disabilities on #SSI volunteer in their community, are caregivers, & make valuable contributions to society. Enacting these #CABudget requests would allow recipients to reach economic self-sufficiency & live with dignity. @asmcoreyjackson.bsky.social @dawnaddis.bsky.social

SSI’s outdated savings penalities keep millions of disabled and older people from saving money and getting out of poverty.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