Every day, thousands of older adults are ripped off by scams that are running rampant on social media platforms. Last week, NYS Alliance and @nysut.bsky.social member Joan asked @newyorkstateag.bsky.social Tish James why tech corporations aren't being held accountable.

🚨 Republicans voted down an amendment that would have protected married women whose name is now different from the one on their birth certificate voting rights. They claimed the SAVE Act doesn’t hurt women. 69 million married women - and the Alliance - beg to differ.

Last week, it was announced that the SSA IG is investigating allegations that a former DOGE employee illegally took Americans' private data on a thumb drive (!!). This is a systemic failure — journalist Vittoria Elliott breaks down why for Stephanie Ruhle.

"I don't think about Americans' financial situation. I don't think about anybody." Trump said it: He doesn't care about Americans struggling to pay for basics like food and gas while he spends billions on a war of choice. No one voted for this and Americans deserve better.

"Six years from now. That's like tomorrow." Thank you, Senator Merkley, for speaking up for Social Security — we need to keep it strong for generations to come. We can do it if we #ScrapTheCap.

Elon Musk says we need to eliminate "entitlements." He's wrong. Social Security and Medicare are earned benefits that we PAID for. It's OUR money, not his.

🚨 Once again, Trump makes it clear: protecting our health care—Medicare and Medicaid—is NOT on his agenda. Millions of seniors and retirees depend on these programs. We can’t afford to let our voices go unheard. #ProtectOurCare #SaveMedicare

Last week, billionaire Scott Bessent said Americans hadn't paid that much more for gas since the war with Iran started. Billionaires might not notice the difference, but the rest of us are making tough choices to make ends meet. We need to elect a Congress that will lower prices for all of us.

As social media continues to get more sophisticated, so do the scammers. Justin Brookman of Consumer Reports explains how bad actors are taking advantage of older adults — and how easy social media makes it for them.

Scott Bessent says Americans have paid nearly $200 more for gas since the war with Iran started. He also says it "isn't much" money. $200 isn't much for billionaires like Bessent and Trump, but for the average retiree whose Social Security check is $1400/month, it's a crisis.

Netanyahu 🇮🇱 admits to instructing his ‘army’ to seize 70% of Gaza 🇵🇸 as a ‘step’ to taking it all: There is no ‘ceasefire’ It’s never been ‘defence’ It’s always been ethnic cleansing It’s always been land theft It’s always been about a ‘Greater 🇮🇱’ Expel 🇮🇱 from the UN now.
