Budget Issue: | Reduce monthly grants for SSI/SSP individuals to the federal minimum. |
Program: | SSI/SSP |
Finding or Recommendation: | Adopt the Governor's proposal to reduce grants to the federal minimum. This would result in General Fund savings of $15 million in 2010-11 and $182 million in 2011-12. |
This reduction would reduce maximum monthly SSI/SSP grants for individuals from $845 to $830 (about 92 percent of the 2010 federal poverty guideline).
