Concerns raised that Trump Accounts could affect disability benefits
Original: Could Trump Accounts hurt benefits for children with disabilities?
A new policy debate in the United States asks whether the proposed Trump Accounts, a savings program intended to give children government-seeded investment funds, could inadvertently affect children with disabilities. The concern centres on how accumulated assets might count against means-tested disability benefits such as SSI and Medicaid, potentially reducing or eliminating support for families.
Why now: The accounts are being discussed because asset limits tied to disability benefits mean new savings could jeopardise support for vulnerable children.
