Legislation co-sponsored by Maryland U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen extends key provision of the Achieving a Better Life Experience, or ABLE program – a means for individuals with disabilities to save money and invest without loss of federal support. .

“There are over 162,000 of these ABLE accounts nationwide since the program’s inception back in 2014.
