A lot of couples with disabilities want to be able to have a life and a family together , but that's not totally possible right now without a big financial loss . A lot of us who have disabilities depend on financial help from our medical insurance to help pay for the medical bills we can't afford on our own . Most of us can't make enough income to be worth while . We would have to make a lot more money than a lot of companies are willing to pay their disabled employees . We depend on money we get from the government to help cover our living expanses since we are unable to work and make enough to afford that stuff . We are fighting for our right to marry another person with a disability without losing our medical insurance and government income which is also called Supplemental Security Income . If you have already signed and shared this petition your support is much appreciated . For those that have not seen this petition yet . Please take a few minutes and either sign or share . Any kind of support helps . Thank you
