The Albany Times Union with its exclusive story about Alison's fight to get her SSI payments restored.
An update: Soon after this story was posted Tuesday afternoon a spokesman with the Social Security Administration contacted the reporter to say that the issue with Alison's benefit payments has been rectified. Presumably this means she will now receive the withheld money.
After four months and three letters.
The power of the press.
Calls by the reporter to the SSA and the office of U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer were not returned.
Meanwhile, the mention in the story of the GoFundMe page resulted in almost $400 being donated for new dentures.
