AARP Florida is making a difference where you live.
As we head into fall, AARP Florida remains deeply engaged in protecting the interests of older Floridians, especially when it comes to the rising cost of utilities. Over the past year, our team has been at the forefront of the Florida Power & Light (FPL) rate case, advocating for transparency, fairness, and affordability in the face of unprecedented proposed rate hikes. This builds on our longstanding efforts to oppose similar rate increase proposals from Duke Energy and TECO, the other electric utility companies regulated by the Florida Public Service Commission (PSC), where we fought to protect consumers from unjustified utility costs.

During this window, Medicare beneficiaries should review their current supplemental plans (such as Medicare Advantage or Part D drug coverage) and determine if that coverage still fits their needs.
Every time we are behind the wheel, on two wheels or on our feet is a perfect time to remember the importance of safety and looking out for one another. October’s Pedestrian Safety Month is a good reminder that we all play a role in making sure people arrive at their destinations safely.
