Rally at Capitol Tuesday to support older adult services

The rally will run from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 28, in the rotunda of the state Capitol, St. Paul.

“The Legislature and Governor set rates for nursing homes,” organizers said. “As legislators finalize the budget, it\’s important that we remind them to prioritize older adult services and the jobs, economic and community stability they bring to the state.”

The rally will include caregivers, consumers, legislators, mayors, and family members, organizers said. Several dozen organizations are sponsoring the event, including AARP, Minnesota Senior Federation, Seniors and Workers for Quality, Minnesota Nurses Association and the Union Coalition of Long-Term Care Workers.
