As a member of the Senate Special Committee on Aging, my priorities include improving retirement security, increasing biomedical research for diseases like Alzheimer’s and diabetes, and combatting scams targeting seniors.
During my tenure as Chairman of the Senate Aging Committee from 2015-2021, I led 74 hearings featuring expert testimony on issues important to older Americans, helping to generate and shape at least 45 new laws authored by members of the Committee to support seniors.
