Dignity and Autonomy for Our Supplemental Security Income PNA Beneficiaries Act

This bill updates how cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) affect Supplemental Security Income (SSI) beneficiaries who receive state supplementary payments. It requires the Personal Needs Allowance (PNA) - a portion of SSI for personal care items - to receive COLA increases alongside the base SSI amount, starting after September 2024. It also mandates that states pass through all federal COLA increases to their supplemental payments, ensuring these amounts rise with inflation. The changes apply to state payments effective October 1, 2024, directly benefiting SSI recipients who rely on state supplements.
