AARP Alabama invites you to a special tele-townhall event on Thursday, November 13, 2025, at 10:00 AM Central Time, featuring senior leadership from the Alabama Legislature. This is a unique opportunity for Alabamians to hear directly from key decision-makers about the issues that matter most to residents age 50 and older.
Scams cost Alabamians millions of dollars a year, and older adults are especially vulnerable. AARP Alabama is helping residents avoid becoming another statistic.
AARP is fighting to protect 50+ voters and make your voice heard on the issues that matter – protecting Social Security and Medicare, lowering prescription drug prices, and ensuring you can vote safely from home or in-person.
Late yesterday, AARP Alabama's State Director, Candi Williams, sent the following letter to Governor Kay Ivey, as well as leaders at the Alabama Department of Public Health and the Alabama Department of Senior Services.
