As a quick reminder, the Blind Americans Return to Work Act will eliminate the SSDI earnings cliff by instituting a two-for-one phase out of benefits for any income earned above the substantial gainful activity threshold. The bill was introduced by Congressman Pete Sessions of Texas and has Congressman Kweisi Mfume of Maryland as the lead cosponsor. </p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">It is essential that we reach out to every member of the House of Representatives to build cosponsor support for this legislation before the session ends later this year. </p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">When you call or email, you might say the following:</p><p class="MsoNormal">"Hello, my name is [YOUR NAME], and I am a constituent of [REPRESENTATIVE NAME].
