As we wrap up the year, I want to thank the older Americans and the family caregivers who keep this country steady.

You’re the reason we fight as hard as we do.

Enjoy the time with your families.

See you in the new year.

[AARP Advocates @AARPadvocates]

It’s time to support America’s 63 million family caregivers.

“President Trump has said that Social Security should be protected and strengthened, and his Administration needs to be clear: any form of Social Security privatization is unacceptable.”

[John Hishta @jhishta]

“More than 69 million Americans rely on Social Security. Social Security is the bedrock of American retirement, lifting tens of millions of seniors out of poverty and providing an inflation-proof retirement for all.

[John Hishta @jhishta]

“President Trump has emphasized many times that Social Security ‘won't be touched,’ and that he is ‘not going to touch Social Security.’ This must include any and all forms of ‘privatization.’

[John Hishta @jhishta]

“AARP condemns Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s endorsement of a ‘backdoor’ to Social Security privatization. We have fought any and all efforts to privatize Social Security, and we will continue to.
