Fairness for Disabled Young Adults Act
This bill raises the age limit for disabled young adults to continue receiving Social Security disability benefits from 22 to 26 years old. It directly affects young adults with disabilities who currently lose benefits at age 22 but would now qualify until age 26. The key mechanism updates multiple provisions in the Social Security Act (including Sections 202(d), 205(j), 225(a), and 1631(a)) to replace "age of 22" with "age of 26" in all relevant places. These changes ensure consistent eligibility across different benefit programs without altering other eligibility requirements.
