NEW: AARP NY/Siena Poll on #NY12 Primary

📊 Lasher 32% | Bores 21% | Conway 13% | Schlossberg 9%, among likely Dem primary voters 50+:

With 21% undecided, older voters will decide this race. They expect action on affordability & retirement security.

7,400 letters from #AARPNY members & other NYers were dropped off today at district offices of Assembly Speaker Heastie and @AndreaSCousins, urging them to support legislation that would protect older adults from the growing financial exploitation crisis https://t.co/Y1uwWWkUlb

#SocialSecurity pumps $79B/year into NY’s economy—earned by workers and now fueling families, businesses, and communities. It’s not a giveaway—it’s a return on a lifetime of contributions. Petition: https://t.co/fkhM3ny08k #WeEarnedIt

[aarpny @AARPNY]

📢Thousands of older Americans left waiting – 2 hr & 56 min wait to reach Social Security is unacceptable. 5 SSA website crashes last month alone. #AARPNY Long Island members urge Congress to act, ensuring efficient, top-notch customer service. #IEarnedIt https://t.co/3thPlCwHjE

[Joe Stelling @JoeStelling]

End the waitlists for aging services! @AARPNY volunteers delivered thousands of messages to Speaker Heastie urging him, @AndreaSCousins and @GovKathyHochul to ensure in the #NYSbudget that older NYers can get the services they need to remain in their own homes and communities.

The SSA plans to cut phone services, making it harder for many—especially in rural areas or with mobility challenges—to access their earned money. Tell Congress to stop these cuts! ✊ https://t.co/J8LhkVGP3z #ProtectSocialSecurity 💵

AARP is hearing from thousands of older Americans worried about their Social Security. We’re urging Congress to protect and save this vital program. Now is the time to act—let your voice be heard! 📢 Visit https://t.co/08v594ME7C and join this fight! ✊ #ProtectSocialSecurity
