Description

Dear President,<br>I am Betsy Benefield and I am a single mom on disability, 50 years old, my daughter's 14. We own a cat - one died for lack of medical care. We live in a studio apartment and my daughter uses a closet for a bedroom. I depend on child supports and SSI and Medicade and food stamps. I struggle with housing and I couldn't keep a cat alive because I couldn't afford to take it to the vet. I have high myopia - I am very near-sighted. The government only supports cheap glasses that break easily. My daughter wears glasses too. There should be support for housing for low-income people and medical care. My daughter says, she wants the war to stop. No more fighting.<br>Sincerely,<br>Betsy Benefield<br>Chicago
