Following is a statement from AARP Michigan President Thomas Kimble in reaction to Gov. Rick Snyder’s State of the State address Thursday evening:
WASHINGTON, D.C. – AARP Foundation today announced it has established a relief fund to support older adults suffering from the severe cold weather that has gripped much of the nation. AARP and its members are committed to helping those in need; so to support these emergency relief efforts AARP and AARP Foundation will match dollar-for-dollar contributions up to $250,000, which could mean up to $500,000 in aid. The matching program will be administered through AARP Foundation.
AARP Michigan has sent the following letter to state legislators regarding the budget surplus:
