The Florida Public Service Commission has scheduled a series of public hearings across Florida — including in Fort Myers, Miami Gardens, Hollywood, West Palm Beach, Daytona Beach Shores, Pensacola, and Panama City — to gather input on Florida Power & Light’s proposed rate hike.
Florida Power & Light (FPL) is proposing an increase that will impact many Floridians, especially seniors on fixed incomes. This proposal raises the minimum base bill for residential customers from $25 to $30—forcing them to pay more regardless of their actual energy usage.

Do you have questions about the changes to Social Security policy going into effect this Monday (April 14, 2025)? You’re not alone!
AARP is hearing from countless older Americans confused and concerned about their Social Security payments, the status of Social Security field offices and inexcusably long wait times on the phone to get their questions answered following the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) recent announcement of major operational changes. These proposed changes are expected to impact nearly one in five Florida residents who receive Social Security benefits, especially the 46 percent of individuals aged 65 and older who rely on the program for at least half of their income.
As spring unfolds, AARP Florida remains actively engaged in a fast-moving legislative session— advocating for policies that protect and uplift older adults across the state.
At AARP Florida, we know the power of volunteers to drive meaningful change in communities across the state. Each day, our volunteers embody passion, leadership, and a deep commitment to making life better for Floridians 50+. And now, it’s time once again to recognize one extraordinary individual with our highest volunteer honor.
