United States Senate Special Committee on Aging
A Message from the Chairman

It is a real privilege to serve as Chairman of the Senate Special Committee on Aging.

I represent Florida, a state where more than 17% of the population is over the age of 65. I'm fully aware of the issues and challenges facing seniors. And, I look forward to working with Republicans and Democrats on this committee to protect Social Security and Medicare.

Sincerely,
signature of Chairman

Chairman Bill Nelson (FL)
