I am the Communications Representative for AARP. I live outside of Providence and commute to work and back each day. I enjoy working with the many volunteers and members that I meet in the course of my work. I am excited about our new national initiative, Divided We Fail which will require all political candidates running for office to address health care and financial security for all Americans. I hope you have signed a pledge card and submitted a story via the web page
