From a press release:
House Committee on Ways and Means Chairman Jason Smith (MO-08), Social Security Subcommittee Chairman Ron Estes (KS-04), and Work & Welfare Subcommittee Chairman Darin LaHood (IL-16) announced today that the Subcommittees on Social Security and Work & Welfare will hold a joint hearing to discuss barriers to work and how policymakers can support opportunities for individuals with disabilities to establish, renew, or strengthen their connection to the workforce. The hearing will take place on Wednesday, July 9, 2025, at 2:00 PM …
When they say “support”, they may mean “demand.” Time limited benefits would be a possibility. That may be the next logical step for Republicans. Further work incentives are pointless. If you demand that they be half dead to get benefits, why are you surprised that they don’t go back to work?
Update: This hearing has already been postponed. No new date given.

Who are the witnesses going to be?
Nobody would hire me, hence SSDI. I paid into that for years. What would they accomplish doing that? People on SSA paying into SSA only to get it back when they work theirselves to near-death? 🤷🏼♂️
A logical choice might be Stephen Evangelista. And if he’s called I do hope they take a minute to ask him how it feels to be the worst songwriter in America.
