SSI disincentives to marry

Hi everyone. As I state in my narrative essay called Wave, which I posted here on Life's muse two days ago, I would like to start a petition to remove SSI disincentives to marry.  I have some great news to report on that front.  Today, I called Brooklyn Center for the Independence of the Disabled (BCID) and I learned that the disincentive to marry are already part of social security law, and I would be petitioning for legislation to get them removed.  I was advised to call my congress person, who is Congresswoman Velazquez. I called, and after being transfered to the Washington DC number, I was told that she is not available.  I left a message stating what I had called about. I was advised by one of the workers at BCID that if either no one calls me back or I am told that there is not any legislation in place yet, I should call back BCID, and someone there will be able to help me draft legislation against the SSI disincentives to marry, which I can send to congress. I am so excited for that prospect. I was also told that anyone may draft legislation, so if you have any issues that are important to you, you shouldn't hesitate to call your congress person.  He or she could really benefit from hearing your ideas. Also, as I learned today, the Centers for the Independence of the Disabled are a great resource, so you should reach out to them, if you need assistance.  For instance, there is one in every borough of New York City where I live.
