The Supreme Court has revised its November argument calendar and added U.S. v. Vaello-Madero on November 9. Vaello-Madero presents the issue of whether it is constitutional to deny SSI benefits to U.S. citizens who reside in Puerto Rico.
By the way, many amicus briefs have been filed already in this case. Every one supports the argument that it is unconstitutional to deny SSI to Puerto Rican residents.
Also, by the way, the Supreme Court is going back to in person oral arguments for its October term. Will Justice Thomas go back to his silent ways?

You'd think SSA would be getting ready for a massive special project, using bilingual employees across the Southeastern US to take the huge numbers of SSI claims that would be coming in if they lose this case.
Nope. They don't believe in contingency planning
They'll have to quadruple the size of the Puerto Rico hearing offices. The R2 regional office will have no way to begin handling the flood of SSI hearing requests.
