There is no record of the AARP endorsing Biden. The organization has explicitly stated that it does not endorse political candidates or donate to political campaigns. Fact Check: The post alleges that AARP made a political endorsement and allocates membership dollars to “support a political candidate.” However, AARP chief executive Jo Ann Jenkins said in a statement on Nov. 25, 2019 that the organization does not engage in such activities. “ We have a proud decades-long history of nonpartisan voter engagement. We don’t endorse candidates or contribute to their campaigns,” she wrote. A more recent statement released Thursday reads, “AARP is strictly non-partisan and always has been. We never endorse or donate to candidates, political parties or political action committees.”
