Summary

The bill amends the Social Security Act to prolong the pilot projects that let disabled workers try new ways to stay employed, moving the expiration from 2022 to the end of 2031. It lengthens the period agencies can waive certain benefit rules, requires evaluation metrics, and ensures participants’ earnings won’t be reduced because of the experiment. The changes aim to give disabled Americans more flexibility to work without losing benefits.
