Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, we recently held a senior forum for residents of Minnesota's Sixth Congressional District. This forum was an opportunity to connect our seniors and their caregivers with resources to assist with health, lifestyle, and future planning needs. I want to thank the Metropolitan Area Agency on Aging and the Central Minnesota Council on Aging for partnering with our office to make this event a success. Recently, the House passed the Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement Act. This nonpartisan law, more commonly known as the SECURE Act, will make it easier to establish retirement plans and removes age limits for IRA contributions. The SECURE Act will allow our seniors more flexibility and improve their quality of life in retirement. This is great, nonpartisan work by Congress. And, going forward, we must all be committed to doing what we can to ensure our seniors are able to plan for their financial futures, stay healthy, and maintain connections to their communities. ____________________”
