AI Summary
This bill aims to amend existing laws to deduct certain necessary work-related travel expenses from the income calculation for individuals with developmental or intellectual disabilities when determining their eligibility for certain benefits. The bill specifies that these necessary expenses can include the costs of vehicle modifications, hired vehicle services, public transportation, and mileage for unmodified vehicles used due to the individual's disability. This change is intended to ensure that work-related travel costs are not unfairly included in the income calculation, which could impact the eligibility of these individuals for necessary benefits.
