AARP is launching a nationwide movement, I Am A Caregiver. To many lawmakers, America’s millions of caregivers are invisible. Yet, these family caregivers hold up a broken long-term care system, which is why AARP is looking for your help.
November is Family Caregiving Month and Military Family Month. As a family caregiver, you may be responsible for managing and administering lots of medication. If you have medications in your home that are no longer needed or expired, AARP Long Island encourages you to dispose of them safely this November.
AARP Texas is urging lawmakers to pass a range of fraud-fighting measures, including protections for consumers who use cryptocurrency ATMs. AARP wants limits on daily transactions. It says that kiosk operators should also be required to post warnings about scams and be registered in Texas.
A new survey shows support from small business owners for a proposed public-private retirement savings program. Nearly 70 percent of surveyed owners who don’t now offer a retirement plan said they were very or somewhat likely to offer the program to their workers.
The AARP-backed bill would require employees of financial institutions to put a hold on transactions if they suspect a person 60 or older is a victim of fraud.
The kiosks—often located in gas stations, groceries or convenience stores—convert cash into difficult-to-trace digital currency. Growth in such scams has led to calls for legislation to better protect South Carolina consumers.
