Programs
The National Committee's 2026 fiscal year was during the 119th Congress (2025-2026) and the first and second years of the Trump Administration. Therefore, most of our legislative and regulatory advocacy was aimed at opposing harmful legislation and calling attention to the mass staff reductions and mayhem caused by the so-called "Department of Government Efficiency" at agencies and programs important to older Americans. In addition, we begin increasing our political activity to help elect "senior friendly" majorities to the House and Senate in the 2026 election. The National Committee focused our legislative advocacy, communications and direct mail to members at opposing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (P.L. 119-21) (also known as the "Big Ugly Bill") which cut Medicaid and SNAP benefits by over $1 trillion to partly pay for tax cuts that mainly benefited the wealthy and large corporations.

Volunteer Engagement The National Committee held monthly volunteer calls with activists and responded to volunteer requests for materials, literature, and information to promote engagement. In 2025 and 2026, the number of volunteers that participated in the monthly call grew, due to continued concerns raised by the new administration and Congress. We also have added more volunteers who were part of the grassroots effort to repeal the Social Security Government Pension Offset and Windfall Elimination Provision. GRP staff worked with NCPSSM volunteers and activists to encourage them to call, email and visit their members of Congress to urge them to oppose any Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid benefit cuts and the proposed fiscal commission. Our national volunteers held grassroots events and performed community outreach in New Hampshire, Florida, Colorado, Connecticut, Minnesota Alaska and California.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $9.4M to $5.4M (−42%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 7 of the last 10 reported years ran a deficit.
