The reports feature the non-random, unscientific results of three You’ve Earned a Say questionnaires. Responses have been collected at events nationwide, on earnedasay.org, through the AARP Bulletin and by phone. AARP consistently hears from people of all ages and across party lines who believe Medicare and Social Security are critical to the health and retirement security of seniors, and the new report includes verbatim comments from among the more than 3 million Americans who’ve engaged in You’ve Earned a Say.

“You’ve Earned a Say is about helping people make their voices heard about the future of Medicare and Social Security,” says AARP Executive Vice President Nancy LeaMond. “These reports reflect what we’ve heard at more than 3,000 events around the country. People want Medicare and Social Security to be strengthened for their children and grandchildren and they want to know what candidates and lawmakers plan to do to put the programs on stable ground for the long-term.”
