@BillH759563 I'm glad you asked! As a strong, nonpartisan advocate for social change at the local, state and national levels, AARP Advocacy fights for issues that matter to people 50-plus, their families, and society, such as:
- Promoting adequate, affordable health care, including prescription drugs and long-term care.
- Helping experienced workers and job seekers and fighting age discrimination in the workplace.
- Promoting family caregiver-support bills to help more people live independently.
- Leading efforts to strengthen and protect Social Security and promote other retirement savings efforts to help everyone achieve life-long financial security.
- Fostering livable communities with affordable and appropriate housing, supportive community features and mobility options.
