To determine public views on older workers, age discrimination, and the Protecting Older Workers Against Discrimination Act (POWADA), AARP conducted a survey of older voters in Arkansas,
Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Nevada, North Carolina, Utah, and Wyoming. Key findings from this survey show: * Between one in four and one in three older voters report that they or someone
they know has recently experienced age discrimination in the workplace. * Between eight in ten and nine in ten older voters say it is important for Congress to take action and restore
workplace protections against age discrimination. * Across party and ideological lines, older voters support the Protecting Older Workers Against Discrimination Act (POWADA). * More than
eight in ten older voters want their Member of Congress to support POWADA. The survey was conducted for AARP by Woelfel Research Inc. in March and April 2014 with a random sample of
registered voters age 50 and over in each state. For more information, contact S. Kathi Brown at [email protected].
