Today, the House is voting on my bipartisan bill with @RepBonamici and @RepSusanWild, the Dignity in Aging Act, to reauthorize and strengthen the #OlderAmericansAct.
This bill is vital for our seniors, our caregivers, and our country. I urge all my colleagues to vote in favor.

More than 50 years ago, Congress passed the Older Americans Act so seniors can live with dignity. The OAA includes important programs like Meals on Wheels, community meal programs, caregiver support, and elder abuse prevention.
