New AARP New Jersey Report Finds Voters Over 50 Decide State and Local Elections by Wide Margins in Off-Year Elections
Overall, 56 percent of registered voters 50 and over say that will support Murphy for a second term, compared with just 31 percent who say that they will back Ciattarelli; the remainder say they will vote for someone else, no one, or they just don’t know yet.
Majorities of voters over 50 are uncertain of their own retirement and support the rapid rollout of the state’s new retirement savings plan for private-sector workers
(Oct. 12, 2021) - It’s National Savings Day – the one day a year set aside to remind us of the importance of saving and reflect on our own savings habits. At AARP, we don’t need a national holiday to remind us just how vital saving for the future is. We know that saving for retirement is one of the most important things you can do for your future, and we work 365 days a year to provide resources to help you plan and grow your savings. But, we can’t do it alone. That’s why this National Savings Day, we are calling on New Jersey to implement the New Jersey Secure Choice Savings Program to make saving for the future easier for everyone.
AARP New Jersey released its 2021 Video Voter Guide today, featuring gubernatorial candidates, Jack Ciattarelli (R) and Governor Phil Murphy (D). Each candidate answered the same four questions on issues that count to older New Jerseyans, including lowering prescription drug prices, helping residents stay in their homes as they age, enhancing retirement security, and making the state a better place to grow older.
(October 6, 2021) - Lawmakers from New Jersey are playing a critical role in the fate of legislation that would allow Medicare to negotiate the price it pays for prescription drugs.
