Will escalating Republican attacks on Social Security disability
benefits cause an increase in homeless people across America? Quite
possibly, say advocates for disabled and mentally ill Americans, citing
the growing attacks on the Social Security Disability Insurance program
in Congress and on the presidential trail. GOP threats to curtail
spending on Social Security have many worried that tens of thousands of
people could be pushed into the streets, primarily because they would
either lose access to subsized housing or could not afford rent.
