Many Americans 50+ are struggling. We worry each day about affording groceries and gas, paying for skyrocketing medical and Rx costs — while fearing Social Security and Medicare may not be there when we need them.
Yet so many Washington politicians aren't listening. It’s time to show them what’s really happening in our lives — and remind them that Americans 50+ are the nation’s most powerful voters.
Are you struggling to afford what you need? Do you balance a job with caregiving for a parent or spouse? Do you wonder how you’ll afford your health care? Share the story of what it’s like to walk in your shoes.
