The number of pending Social Security disability claims continues to increase. Congressman Rob Filner of California has introduced legislation to federalize the State Disability Determination Services (DDS).
Filner, at a recent joint hearing of the Ways and Means Committee testified the backlog of Social Security Disability claims is continuing to mount. In California alone, 40,000 cases were involved in the backlog and 1,000 new cases were being added each month. State imposed furloughs have complicated the process even further.
