This November, critical issues like Medicare, Social Security, caregiving, prescription drugs and financial security are all on the line. AARP is urging all New Jerseyans to use your vote to hold politicians accountable and make them pay attention to the nation's most powerful voting bloc - the 50+.

Over half of New Jersey workers – 1. 7 million people - do not have access to a retirement savings plan through their employer. [1] Programs such as Social Security are critical to retirement security but do not provide enough for an individual to depend on during their retirement. The average Social Security benefit for a 65+ family is about $19,000 a year, though on average older New Jersey families spend $23,000 a year of food, utilities, and health care alone.
