MEMORANDUM***

2
Alicia M. Waite appeals pro se the district court's sua sponte dismissal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d) of her action challenging the Secretary of Health and Human Services' reduction of her Supplemental Security Income.   Waite contends the district court erred by concluding the action was frivolous based upon her failure to exhaust administrative remedies.   We review for abuse of discretion the district court's determination that a complaint is frivolous under section 1915(d),  Denton v. Hernandez, 112 S.Ct. 1728, 1734 (1992), and we affirm the for the reasons stated in the district court's order denying Waite's motion for reconsideration.
