AARP Eye Center
The vital lifeline for tens of millions of Americans everywhere, including 84,150 here in the District, used for housing, groceries, gas, and the other everyday necessities will mark its 90th birthday this summer. And with that anniversary comes a responsibility to strengthen the program – and determine how we can help it age in the healthiest way. As the bedrock of retirement in America, our financial future depends on protecting Social Security for decades to come.
As the AARP DC Volunteer State President, I am proud to represent 68,000 AARP members in the District, and on behalf of them and all older District residents, we are advocating for a budget that honors their dignity and needs. For the District’s FY2026 budget, our message is clear: District seniors deserve their fair share of the pie.
