Erin Parrish, AARP

Hosted by Bill Raker. AARP, the largest non-profit, non-political, non-partisan organization in the U.S., advocates at the state and national levels for policies that enhance the well-being of all. Guest Erin Parrish, AARP's Sr. Associate State Director for Advocacy and Outreach, shares the history and mission of AARP with host Bill Raker. The timely discussion focuses on the status of the Social Security fund, the importance and impact of the benefits received by millions of Americans, and what Congress needs to do to preserve and protect those benefits for current and future generations.  Erin also speaks to why Congress must address the need for programs that support caregivers. AARP is working to educate voters on these issues and is urging voters to make their voices heard by legislators. Voter engagement is a cornerstone of our democracy.
