Three active campaigns in 2026. Your representatives need to hear from constituents who care about elder justice.
Each campaign below represents a specific legislative priority. Click to contact your representatives — EJC's tool takes less than 5 minutes.
OAA Reauthorization
The Older Americans Act funds home-delivered meals, transportation, caregiver support, and elder abuse prevention programs serving millions of older Americans. Without reauthorization, these programs face funding uncertainty affecting every congressional district.
FY2027 Labor-HHS Appropriations — Ask: $100M
Adult Protective Services programs investigate elder abuse, neglect, and financial exploitation for the most vulnerable Americans. The current funding level leaves APS dramatically underfunded relative to the scale of elder abuse — an estimated 1 in 10 older adults experiences abuse, but most cases go unreported and uninvestigated.
FY2027 Labor-HHS Appropriations (Title VII OAA) — Ask: $187.5M total
Long-Term Care Ombudsman Programs provide essential advocacy for residents of nursing homes and assisted living facilities — investigating complaints, resolving disputes, and protecting residents' rights. Underfunding leaves ombudsmen unable to cover the facilities in their jurisdiction, leaving residents without an independent advocate.
