AARP Florida is making a difference where you live.
Today, AARP Florida celebrates legislative wins as the 2025 legislative session comes to a close.
AARP has a long history of supporting veterans and military families. This includes about six million military service members who are AARP members today. At AARP Florida, we’re providing Florida-specific resources for veterans across our state.
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.
We explore the history of the Rosewood Massacre and speak with a direct descendant whose family survived this horrific event.
Volunteers with AARP Florida returned to the Florida capitol this month for the first time since the pandemic. They're meeting with legislators and advocating for Floridians 50+ on issues such as long-term care, home and community-based services and affordable housing.
