Thanks to all the Iowa legislators who met with volunteers and constituents at the Capitol yesterday to learn more about our legislative priorities, including a bill to make it easier for homeowners to build an Accessory Dwelling Unit on their property: spr.ly/6188IJNcw

Thank you, Rep. Randy Feenstra, for introducing the Paid Family and Medical Leave Tax Credit Act. The proposed enhancements in the bill will encourage more employers—especially small businesses—to provide this important benefit to our nation's 48 million family caregivers. 👏👏👏

☎️ AARP is calling on the Social Security Administration to clarify what it's doing to protect services for those who rely on Social Security. 👉 More than 68 million Americans receive Social Security, and 183 million workers pay into it. spr.ly/6015LqZ6S

We're one vote away from passing a Hands Free Driving bill here in Iowa. HF827/SF22 is up for debate on the House floor tomorrow and AARP Iowa is urging Representatives in the #ialegis to vote YES to keeping ALL Iowans safe on the road!📵🚗

We applaud the Iowa Legislature for passing SF22 and look forward to the Governor signing this bill into law. Banning the use of handheld phones while driving is an essential layer of protection against distracted driving.

In an ever-changing – and often confusing – political and media environment, AARP is continuing to fight on behalf of our members to protect Social Security.

AARP is fighting for bipartisan federal legislation that would deliver new resources to law enforcement agencies to help them investigate financial crimes. Thank you, Zach Nunn, for sponsoring this important bill. spr.ly/60102nsaj

AARP advocates for policies that help older Iowans remain in their homes and communities, which is why we fought so hard for passage of the Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) bill. We're thrilled Gov. Kim Reynolds signed this bill into law yesterday (and she even autographed our model ADU)!

As the legislative session draws to a close, we are calling on lawmakers to vote NO on the current energy bill. Iowans deserve fair energy rates, and this bill will drive up costs for consumers while giving utility companies more power and profits.

Thank you, Chuck Grassley, for co-sponsoring the Medicare Audiology Access Improvement Act. This bipartisan bill would make it easier for people with Medicare to see audiologists directly, removing unnecessary roadblocks to care.

We hope you'll come see us at the Iowa State Fair and at other events this August as we celebrate the 90th anniversary of Social Security! spr.ly/6016fdn1s
