Fellow advocate,United Spinal supports the ABLE Age Adjustment Act (H.R. 1219/S.331), which would expand eligibility for ABLE accounts by increasing the age limit on the onset of disability from 26 to Fellow advocate, United Spinal supports the *ABLE Age Adjustment Act* (H.R. 1219/S.331), which would expand eligibility for ABLE accounts by increasing the age limit on the onset of disability from 26 to 46, allowing 6 million more individuals the opportunity to enroll. ABLE accounts are tax-advantaged savings accounts for individuals with disabilities and their families which can cover disability-related expenses such as education, housing, transportation, employment support and other support expenses.

The opportunity provided through the ABLE Act to assist in securing more financial stability for individuals with disabilities and their families is profound; however, it is limited to those individuals with an age of onset of disability prior to their 26th birthday. Many individuals who could benefit from ABLE accounts are left out since many conditions can and do occur later in life, including multiple sclerosis, ALS, or paralysis. Additionally, veterans who become disabled as a result of their service after age 25 are currently ineligible for ABLE accounts. Tell Congress to support the ABLE Age Adjustment Act today! <https://www.votervoice.net/BroadcastLinks/MDgp88yn1xteBmHH4UtzZA> Thanks, United Spinal Advocacy and Policy Team ------------------------------ Click here <https://www.votervoice.net/BroadcastLinks/DK3utrh484_IiGwByrQ9sg> to unsubscribe from this mailing list.
