I agree that we should work to reduce that number, absolutely.

we have a moral responsibility to help those with disabilities who can get back to work.

I have recently introduced legislation by the name of Right of Way for American Drivers Act that would begin to do just that: Pay for it.

I made a commitment to the disability community to make this program work better and to promote opportunity for those who want and can return to work.

I want to give any American who is disabled, who says, 'I can still work, let me show you,' the opportunity to do so.

There are two problems for the American taxpayer when Social Security can't manage earnings reports: First, dollars go out that shouldn't; second, individuals who want to work are discouraged from doing so. It's time Congress takes a look…

We are committed to finding ways to make the program work better and promote opportunity for individuals who want to return to work.
