WHO WE ARE

The Alliance for Retired Americans is a nationwide organization founded in May 2001, with three million members working together to make their voices heard in the laws, policies, politics and institutions that shape our lives.

The mission of the ARA is to ensure social and economic justice and full civil rights for all citizens, so they may enjoy lives of dignity, personal and family fulfillment and security.

We are an organization of retirees who are committed to activism and want to influence the policies of government that affect all older Americans. We are not in competition with AARP. We believe the Alliance can be singularly effective on behalf of retired workers by focusing on the issues that most affect them.

We're proud to be allied with the AFL-CIO and other partners. We think the Alliance has much to offer by helping retirees stay connected to their unions and helping to educate all of our members about the issues they care about. We support elected officials, regardless of party affiliation, who support our agenda and the issues we care about. We welcome members from outside the labor movement who share our concerns. The dues of retirees of participating unions are paid by their unions; other members pay an annual membership fee of $10.00.

If you want a voice in the decisions that affect you and your family,you should become a member of the Alliance for Retired Americans. Working together and voting together is the best way for working families to have a voice in government. Unions support the Alliance because they want to ensure that their members remain active and stay informed in their retirement years.
