AARP Backs Legislation to Protect Older Investors.

New bill calls for creation of a task force on financial abuse.

Older adults lose billions every year to financial exploitation, which often eats into retirement savings and other funds built up over decades of work. One in 10 older adults in the U.S. have experienced illegal or improper use of their funds, property or assets, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. ​​

That’s why AARP is supporting the Senior Security Act of 2025, a bipartisan bill introduced earlier this year that would help combat increasingly sophisticated financial fraud and scams targeting older adults. An earlier version of the bill unanimously passed the House in 2023 but did not become law.
