Bill Summary
Relative to the federal Older Americans Act of 1965.
AI Summary
This Joint Resolution urges the President and Congress of the United States to reauthorize the federal Older Americans Act of 1965, a law originally passed in 1965 that provides essential services and support for older Americans, particularly home- and community-based services, advocacy, and consumer direction. The resolution highlights that the Act was last fully reauthorized in 2006 and has not been reauthorized since, despite annual funding authorizations and updates in 2009, and expresses concern that continued delays risk reducing vital funding for programs that serve a substantial number of older Americans, especially in California, and could weaken the infrastructure that delivers these crucial services. The resolution also calls for the Act to be funded in the same manner it has been for the past 48 years and directs the Secretary of the Senate to send copies of this resolution to various federal officials and California's congressional delegation.
