Devon Wieters on Advocacy, Podcasting & Disability Rights

Welcome to a new edition of Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino. In this episode, we speak with Devon Wieters, a college graduate, writer, and podcaster who is dedicated to creating a better world for all.

Devon, who has cerebral palsy, is a fierce advocate for disability rights. She actively supports the passage of the SSI Restoration Act, aimed at eliminating the Social Security/Medicaid “marriage penalty”, and the SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act, which would raise income and asset limits for Social Security and Medicaid recipients.

In our discussion, we cover:
✅ The importance of disability advocacy
✅ Challenges and triumphs in podcasting
✅ Social Security & Medicaid reforms
✅ The future of inclusivity and accessibility
