A dark blue social media infographic compares the cost of daily expenses in 1989 vs. today in 2025. A gallon of milk was $2.02 in 1989, but it’s $4.27 in 2025. Rent for an average apartment was $447 a month in 1989, but in 2025 it’s $2,081! An average car cost $2,000 in 1989, but it’s $48,000 in 2025. Yet the SSI asset limit was $2,000 in 1989, and it’s still $2,000 in 2025. White text on the graphic asks: “Why hasn’t the SSI asset limit kept up with inflation?”

Today @cortezmasto.senate.gov, Senator Bill Cassidy, Representative Danny Davis and Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick introduced the SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act. This bipartisan bill will #updateSSI asset limits, allowing SSI recipients to save more than the outdated $2,000. #DemolishDisabledPoverty
