AARP doesn’t endorse or give money to political candidates, parties or campaigns. We do not direct candidates, parties or PACs to use our name in ads, fundraising emails or other campaign efforts.

Our non-partisan status matters to us and to our members, especially in this day and age, and has been verified by numerous independent fact checkers.
