AARP Florida is making a difference where you live.
AARP Florida is saddened to announce the passing of long-time volunteer and advocate Bill Ternent.
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.
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.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – AARP Florida applauds State Senator Don Gaetz’s proposed bill (SB 354), which aims to strengthen state utility regulation, increase transparency, and hold utility companies accountable for how they set rates. If passed, this legislation would help ensure fairer electricity pricing for millions of Floridians, particularly seniors on fixed incomes.
