We Earned Social Security—Now Let’s Protect It
It’s that time of year again, Washingtonians—Medicare Open Enrollment is just around the corner! If you are over age 65, you may qualify for a Medicare plan. Medicare open enrollment is from October 15 to December 7, 2025. Medicare beneficiaries in the District can review, switch, or update their coverage for plans that begin January 1, 2026.
As the AARP DC Volunteer State President, I am proud to represent 68,000 AARP members in the District, and on behalf of them and all older District residents, we are advocating for a budget that honors their dignity and needs. For the District’s FY2026 budget, our message is clear: District seniors deserve their fair share of the pie.

On June 25, Sarah Waddle (AARP Indiana State Director) and Linda Dunno (AARP Indiana State President) traveled from the Indiana State Office at 1 North Capitol Avenue to Capitol Hill in Washington D.C. to attend the 2025 AARP Lobby Day. The summer weather was in full force with heat indexes reaching over 100 degrees. Sarah and Linda even came across a woman who had the sole of her shoe melted by the heat! Despite the heat, Sarah and Linda had a day full of meetings with legislators and their teams.
