AARP CEO Myechia Minter-Jordan today issued the following statement to commemorate the 90th anniversary of Social Security:
You’re sipping your morning coffee when the phone rings. It’s your grandson. He sounds panicked. Says he’s in trouble and needs money to avoid jail. Fast!
Social Security was signed into law in 1935, and August 14th marks the 90th Anniversary. AARP Virgin Islands encouraged Governor Albert Bryan, Jr. to sign a proclamation marking August 14, 2025 as Social Security Day in the US Virgin Islands to honor this incredible achievement.
Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro proclaims August 14, 2025, as ‘Social Security Day’ in honor of Social Security’s 90th Anniversary
The fight against scams and fraud targeting older Americans took center stage in Miami-Dade County this week, as Jeff Johnson, State Director for AARP Florida, testified before the Senator Rick Scott and the U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging during a field hearing focused on protecting seniors from financial exploitation.
On Monday, AARP Florida staff and volunteers brought a powerful message to the Florida Public Service Commission (PSC): Florida’s older residents, families, and those living on fixed incomes can’t afford another costly utility rate increase.
Republican nominee Winsome Earle-Sears, the current Lieutenant Governor, declined the invitation due to a scheduling conflict. Former U.S. Rep. Abigail Spanberger’s campaign accepted the debate invitation on behalf of the Democratic nominee in July.
For ninety years, Social Security has provided a stable and reliable foundation for the retirement security of millions of Americans.
We Earned Social Security—Now Let’s Protect It
Throughout August, AARP is partnering with cities and local governments across Florida to illuminate buildings, monuments, and to sign proclamations as part of the Skyline Salute, a nationwide tribute honoring Social Security’s 90th anniversary.
