Seniors

Costs are going up, but social security and retirement accounts are not keeping up. That’s why Kara is fighting to increase support for our seniors and cut taxes.

You worked hard your whole life. Kara believes it’s the state’s obligation to do right by you. Kara:

• Eliminated taxes on social security, pensions and annuities for most seniors

• Increased funding for Meals on Wheels

• Established a Ombudsman program to help with home care services

• Increased funding for aging in place initiatives

• Fought to lower prescription drug costs

• Expanded coverage for hearing aids on certain healthcare plans

• Created the Public Elder Abuse Registry to help protect seniors

Kara is committed to making sure that seniors are given an affordable, safe, and secure retirement.
