We have been waiting a long time. PLEASE PASS THE ELDER JUSTICE ACT!!!

PLEASE PASS THE ELDER JUSTICE ACT!!!

I urge you to pass this important legislation. It has been a long wait for enactment of a policy that will have a significant and very positive impact on older adults.

The Elder Justice Act has a direct and important nexus to health care reform; it provides a critical safety net for abused seniors, many of whom are in failing health and cannot protect themselves from harm. We as a society have a duty to protect our most vulnerable population, who deserve to age with dignity and not die at the hands of their desperate perpetrators. The Elder Abuse Act ensures support systems are able to respond immediately and appropriately to the needs of seniors who are abused or neglected and works with law enforcement to prosecute those who commit these henious crimes. I support the Elder Justice Act and Health Care Reform and urge your support as well.

The AR Advocates for Nusing Home Residents deal with abuse on our weakest and most needy citizens on a daily basis. There have been three GAO reports released in the last nine months documenting the failures in our U.S. regulatory system in protecting nursing home residents. There are over fourty GAO reports (going back thirty years) documenting the fact that abuse and neglect is rampant. PLEASE pass the Elder Justice ACT now. Only you have the power to help our beloved elders.
Sincerly.

I urge you to pass this Elder Justice Act. I am an Ombudsman and I see in the field how much protection elders need and deserve. I’m doing my part now in hopes someone will help me when I’m vulnerable

This is a critical step to raise awareness about elders and vulnerable adults.

Please pass the Elder Justice Act! Thanks for your consideration in hearing my perspective.

Please support the Elder Justice Act

Do something good for the sake of our elder population which I describe as the through-away generation.

A worthy cause,

As a social worker I have seen the enormous problem of elder abuse, in my many years of practice both in NY and Los Angeles.

Please enact the Elder Justice Act.

As a social worker who works with many older adults, many of whom are victims of elder abuse, I urge you to pass the Elder Justice Act.

Our seniors are deserving of such legislation.

We elders need protection now!!!!!!!!!

help fight elder abuse now! PLEASE!

There is no elder justice if you work for a non profit church. You are fired, your insurance is terminated (even if you’re a cancer patient), you are not allowed to see your retirement statement…..and you’re not protected by the Dept. of Labor, Dept. of Insurance. You’re on your own. Get the word out. Even the church run schools don’t have to abide my state standards. No one is safe. They even cover up child abuse!
