Social Security Adm - VA Adm Fraudelent Claims Denails-Human rights violation Baltimore Maryland
This is a letter sent to US Senator Gillibrand of New York urging her to take cause at Senate to force Social Security Adm to obey the law in finding of claim decisions. Urges US Senate to take the cause of Veterans who likewise are suffering as the Veterans Administration like Social Security Administration are not obeying the law as written to find claims decisions. This is submitted as I attempt to document what it is to be an American worker vested in SSDI or a GI returning hurt from war and being put out on the streets while the VA puts a cat's tail on the dog and drowns a hamster. Both Social Security Adm and the Veterans Administration are denies food, water and housing. This is a human rights violation done to us by our government.
Dear United States Senator Gillibrand
It is appropriate as I try to further the cause to elevate to full citizenship those disabled, or handicapped as I prefer, to address to you a tool so often used by Social Workers to exam, solve, or illuminate a advocacy cause, a Case Study. I want to take a moment to exam with you the fact that the two terms used are often perceived as synonymous. A person who has coped with physical disabilities for most of her life I perceive the word handicapped as a statement of hope. The word disabled I perceive as a pronouncement of doom. Often as an Advocate for those disabled, or handicapped, have introduced myself as handicapable. This term not listed in a dictionary, or Spell check illustrates well what anyone handicapped must hold dear. A commitment of self to independence. A need to contribute. A need to be part of something, to achieve, and to enjoy all the benefits of working. Be it paid or volunteer. A few hours or a lifetime. We are not disabled and so therefore unable. We are if handicapped able, capable, and dedicated as any American to working, achieving, and succeeding.
A root of my Advocacy for those disabled or handicapped and so miserable at enduring so many losses as the Veterans Administration and the Social Security Administration has remade themselves into police agencies instead of either an insurance carrier, or a provider of services to those who served this nation in our Armed Services. At root is the cause that those hurting and denied timely service in making Claim for Veterans Benefits or are held in captivity of consumer/insurance fraud done by the Social Security Administration as it uses fraudulent Claim Denials to further some inept policy to dissuade those Americans it perceives may be cheating, trying to obtain benefits when not due.
These policies adopted by both agencies for two different yet similar programs, that provide benefits to those disabled are in my finding a denial of due process of law to all disabled or handicapped Americans. Are the very basis that Lady Bird Johnson despite her handicaps sat long hours to type for President Johnson the words that would someday become the Americans with Disability Act (ADA). So sadly found in these policies that are not found justified in either current law, court decision, or finding of any jurisprudence is the very reason why it was so necessary for our Senate and Congress to go beyond the 1964 Civil Rights Amendment and put into law the Americans with Disability Act that specifies, then abhors, species and outlines how it is that those handicapped are to be provided full equity in housing, employment, banking, and medical care. You probably well understand the legal ramifications of making it possible for the handicapped to access jobs, homes, their kitchen or baths. To be able to shop, work, play, rest in comfort that they to could achieve the American Dream of independence and prosperity.
An outgrowth of the rights preserved to those disabled spurred the need to study how to use these conceptsto apply to those aging. Today the interplay of the Older Americans Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act guide a great part of the three trillion dollars allocated of the Federal Budget to serve these populations so long tragically held in poverty. They guide hiring practices, practices of the housing industry, establish guides for programs serving the nutritional or transportation needs of these populations, and of course guide policy and procedures of insurance companies, and the regulation of such programs as Medicare, Medicaid, and of course Social Security Programs, and Supplemental Security Income Programs. No two pieces of Federal Legislation has since so impacted the insurance industry, or have so concisely mandated
Consumer Protections. It has been said that the Federal Trade Commission learned how to protect Americans their consumer rights as these two laws unfolded what it means to have equitable treatment when making application for disability benefits. At first the Veterans Administration swayed away from these issues and then as a Vietnam Veteran confined to a wheel chair came to oversee the Veterans Administration Americans came to understand what can do is, and what equity must be. The cause of human rights was elevated and even more importantly the rights of insurance consumers were codified. Certainly anyone vested in Social Security Disability Insurance Benefits shares with me this statement. I paid for it and I deserve fair treatment! Those who have served in the Armed Services of the
What does the term Consumer Rights endear to me and so many? At basis is the fact that any person who has suffered loss as a result of a company, an insurance company, failing to deliver quality and timelines, honesty and integrity in the pursuit of business denies more than just a Money Back guarantee. When that insurance company is the very insurance company owned by the American people and administered in the way of the Federal government it is grievous day to write to a
defamation.
This then is my cause as an advocate before you the United States Senate. This ill will has neglected the rights of those disabled, and those aging. Have cursed each year 311,000 American Workers paying SSDI Taxes and Medicare Taxes and twice that number of American veterans to lives without. I have given my need for justice, my claims as an Advocate for all disabled Americans a name Courage of Honesty.
Humility is an answer if often courage must be stood to question. My question as I examine with you in Case Studies is how it came to be that the United States Senate failed to provide to American Veterans and American workers their right to Procedural Review before both the Veterans Administration and the Social Security Administration. How is it that the General Services Administration, the United States Treasury, the Federal Trade Commission, the Federal Police, and the Inspector General of the
Defamation rolled, injury compounded, hurt multiplied. I have read that 4,000 Americans each year enduring this outlandish scheme by Social Security Administration to police cheaters have died of neglect. That more than 1,500 American Veterans die neglected their rights to lawful claim finding. That the suicide rate among both groups has doubled. This then is a compilation of Case Studies of those who wanted to survive. To rest and heal. To seek rehabilitation. To overcome and achieve. The following case studies I must insist are what hope is about.
The fact is no one asks for, wants to be, would dream to be disabled, sick, ill, and never dying. The fact is neither administration can document this police activity resulted in any identification of actual fraud done by a claimant. It has resulted though in great harm I will document. The harm to so many. The reasoning so illogical and out of contest of existing law. Beyond comprehension this is truly a human rights violation. The United States Senate must stand immediately to call to order. We the disabled in
What is a child but a miracle joined of love. She is born to wear pink and he to blue. Juvenile diabetes each year claims from those like I who cherish children their hope of a normal life. Like the developmental disabilities suffered by children this is burden that a child suffers to overcome. Amputee victims must learn to walk, those blind must learn to touch, and those brain disordered, mentally ill, should learn more than hate. Children bear burdens with strengths adults lose somewhere as age grows. They do not join days in suffering but greet each day anew and somehow their joy is contagious. They can not wait years to heal, for hope can not die as quickly as a child grows. Their parents must have money for medical care, supplies, or the wheel chair that can win at the Special Olympics. They can not wait to have the quality of medical care Medicare can provide. They can not wait to live, and the child is proclaimed innocent.
What is it to be the average American who becomes disabled? They are usually about 42 years of age. They are usually Christian, and usually Caucasian because these two categories are the majority of Americans. They are not like the children hopeful, joyful, able to leave the pain of yesterday behind to greet today, or dream of tomorrow. These Americans are at the peak of their lives. They have 2.5 children. Have jobs. Are buying homes. They are there. They are cut down by accidents at work, or at home. They are complicated souls who live in complicated vessels, the human body. You have high blood pressure and they recover from a stroke. You have diabetes and adjust your diet, and they lose a leg. You hit your head and get a bump, they injure their brain and learn to walk and talk again. You cope with life and talk with your doctor about depression, or anxiety? They unravel in hopelessness as their brain no longer will perform the tasks so meant to see them raising their children, thinking of vacations, promotions at work, and eventually retirement. They lose so much and learn healing is more than a touch if courage is a grace as they face cancers that take years to take lives. Why has the United States Senate not called the Social Security Administration to task of Procedural Review. Those hurt, hurting, those injured and recovering, those facing terminal illnesses can not wait 3, 5, or seven years? What United States Senate is the Courage of Honesty?
And then there are so many like I who have survived injury, or illness. Learned to walk, or talk, learned to stand straight, learned as no racial minority, or no victim of sexism or religious persecution has learned. Have learned to challenge and overcome. They graduated Special Education. The worked with the Job Coach overcame with rehabilitation. They challenged educational institutions to give them access. And when they accessed jobs they proved courage is honest. They had 2.5 children it is hoped. They bought a home. They dreamed of vacations, and loved promotions at work. Life is complicated, human vessels can age, and what handicap did not sway in youth age can destroy with age. But hope endures in the words of the Older Americans Act that pronounces those fifty five years or older can not be judged as disabled by the same standards used for someone in youth. How long can a Senior Citizen wait knowing courage is maybe the only truth that keeps going.
Who are the women and men who serve in the Armed Services of this Nation? They are human beings sometime busted, and sometimes broke by not just war and its blasting violence, but sometimes by just the grief of what is endured when one looks back and asks War what is it good for? They are very old, they survived the Holocaust to triumph during the Second World War, and they went to
What is it to wait one year, then two, or three years for your Claim for benefits you earned to be found favorably on evidence originally submitted? What did I feel when a Social Security Administration District Manager stated that with the cutbacks it could well be a seven year entanglement. I felt hopeless as I lay homeless. I felt a hunger that food if I could afford it would never nourish. Someone asked Senorita, is it
worth it? A fellow American asked if I felt as if killing myself was the answer? Another stated they would kill themselves if suffered like I to the streets cold hell and a terrible illness. A grocery clerk found a moment of compassion, apologized, It is sad that people really disabled like you are must wait while we catch the frauds this way
So many asked what is PTSD? What is this disease the VA agues for and Claims against. This disease that no one knows. It is PTSD to think 154,000 American Veterans will be homeless again tonight in this Nation because the Veterans Administration can not meet the challenge of honesty. Can not possess the courage to be honest and follow the law in doing Claim finding. Why is it almost every returning Veteran from the War Against Terrorism is thought to have PTSD and then are denied the hope of rehabilitation, of healing, of life, and its challenges by a government entity that believes people fake things like PTSD. In courage they won for
You the United States Senate must represent the people. This is our cause as consumers, as the battle weary, as those disabled. It is time to go home. To bed, to rest, to warmth, to heal, to food and comfort Hope always renews, faith rewards, miracles happen, people do heal.
The Courage of Honesty. Either bring charges of submitting a fraudulent claim or desist!
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
