    No family caregiver should feel financially paralyzed. Congress has got to do more to support family caregivers who are pouring their time, energy and income into propping up our long-term care system. They need relief now.

    Social Security and Medicare benefits should not be cut to fix problems in the rest of the federal budget. These benefits are not handouts. They are benefits Americans have earned after years of working hard and paying taxes into the two programs.

    AARP is pleased that and are re-establishing the Assisting Caregivers Today (ACT) Caucus. Family caregivers are the backbone of our care system. We look forward to working with the ACT Caucus & Congress to support family caregivers.

    More than half (58%) of Americans 50 and older are concerned they won't be able to afford prescription drugs over the next few years for themselves or their families.

    Enough is enough. Congress must take action NOW to stop unfair drug prices. Too many Americans are suffering.

    It's Time for Fair Rx Prices.

    Family caregivers provide $470 billion in unpaid care every year holding up our fractured long-term care system. They deserve some financial relief.

    Fun fact: Voters 50+ across party lines would view a member of Congress more favorably if they supported legislation to lower prescription drug prices.

    We fought to make this data public and now we are urging CMS to make it accessible. Older Americans & their loved ones deserve to know what’s happening in nursing homes and make informed decisions. 🔗

    CMS requires all nursing homes to report vaccine stats for residents & staff. Yet this info is inaccessible to consumers. As I told , “Getting this on ‘Nursing Home Compare’ is super important. Having it buried in a spreadsheet is really frustrating.”

    PhRMA is always trying to protect their profits before all else. But seniors know the truth - action to lower Rx prices is long overdue.

    Though the details of how exactly the Senate budget would reform drug pricing are not yet available, PhRMA came out swinging with a statement calling it "extreme" and warning it will " upend Medicare"

    Americans are being forced to make choices they should never have to make: paying for medications or paying for necessities like food & rent. A teacher shares the tough decisions she made to afford her inhalers. It shouldn't be this way. We need ACTION to stop unfair Rx prices

    Low vaccination rates among nursing home staff = vulnerable residents & staff How far behind is nursing home staff vaccination? Only 4 states (HI, CA, VT, NH) and D.C. have reached this minimum standard set by the industry in even HALF of nursing homes.

    Older Americans held 22% of all last year. Their share of the burden is soaring bc of: -leftover debt from $$ undergraduate & graduate degrees from decades before or recent job-boosting pursuits -taking on debt to pay for kid's $$ college This is intergenerational.

    Today, the student debt crisis reached $1,830,122,221,360

    The takeaway: Nursing home residents & staff are still vulnerable, and every effort must be made to protect them. AARP encourages all nursing home residents & staff to get a free COVID vaccine to protect yourself, your family & your community.

    The number of nursing homes reporting PPE and staffing shortages in the last month *increased*. 5% reported an urgent need for PPE, up from 3.6%. 24% reported not having enough direct care staff like nurses and aides.

    After several months of stagnation, rates of new COVID cases in nursing homes have begun to fall again -- to about 1 in 600 residents. Resident deaths also declined to <1 in 1500 residents. There are still worrying trends: low vax rates and increased PPE & staffing shortages.
