Coming off an unprecedented year when every single case was heard remotely, the Supreme Court will review a variety of cases with implications for older adults and people with disabilities.

Both already on the docket and likely to come before the Court are cases on health care, employee and retiree rights, patient and consumer protections, and other issues. AARP Foundation attorneys will either be actively participating in these cases or following them closely to assess their impact on older adults, especially those who are struggling with disabilities or financial hardships.

Participation in such cases is an integral part of AARP Foundation’s advocacy, particularly in a time when older adults with lower incomes are more vulnerable than ever. AARP Foundation will continue to fiercely defend older adults — not only in the Supreme Court, but also in courts across the country.
