Every time Washington talks about “fixing” health care, things get worse for patients and taxpayers.
Why? Because AARP – one of the most powerful lobbying forces in D.C. – stands in the way.
AARP’s membership dues in 2024 only amounted to 3% of its total revenue. The rest – over $9 billion – came from the largest health insurance company UnitedHealth. It’s time Congress knows that AARP doesn’t represent senior citizens – just Big Insurance.
