Brandon Simmons is a determined advocate who has transformed his challenges into a platform for change. As a one-legged above-the-knee amputee with a speech impairment and a deformed right hand, he has encountered significant obstacles throughout his life. With the unwavering support of his parents, Michael and Teresa, Brandon learned the values of perseverance and self-acceptance. His journey tow

ard confidence began at the Recreation Outreach Center (R.O.C.) Youth Center, where he evolved from a shy individual into an outgoing advocate over the course of ten years. Additionally, he volunteered for fourteen years at Watertown TV, taking on roles in camerawork, editing, directing, and audio directing. In 2020, he achieved his dream role there, but faced a setback in 2023 when he was let go. Despite this, he remains committed to his media production projects. Through his social media channels, Brandon shares his story and advocates for inclusivity, emphasizing that disabilities do not define an individual’s potential. He inspires many by demonstrating that with courage and resilience, it is possible to overcome adversity and create a more inclusive future for everyone.

Why should disabled people have to risk losing SSI just to save money for an emergency or future goal? This video explains how SSI resource limits can make independence and financial security harder to reach.

Hey friends at The Arc of the United States The Arc Wisconsin Disability Rights Wisconsin

The $2,000 SSI resource limit is broken. Trying to survive on a limited monthly SSI payment while being forced to stay under that cap isn’t budgeting—it’s a trap. It forces disabled people to choose between saving for an emergency and paying for basic needs.
I’m asking Senators Tammy Baldwin and Ron Johnson, along with Representative Scott Fitzgerald, to support raising and inflation-adjusting the SSI resource limit. I’m also asking The Arc, Disability Rights Wisconsin, and independent-living advocates to help organize for change.

How are we mobilizing to update these outdated rules so disabled people can work, save, and build a real safety net without risking essential benefits?
