Thank you for trying to help your friend.

I know a disabled man who got some benefits restored after his state senator got involved. you might try contacting office holders at any level

Thank you that's an interesting idea, hadn't thought of that approach, might try it if we can't get through a normal appeal.

This is a large part of what your federal elected officials are there for. It's worth reaching out early to see if they have any contacts they can share, even without an escalation.
