AARP is widely known for addressing issues affecting older Americans through a multitude of initiatives, including lobbying efforts at the state and national governmental level, an activity permitted by its 501 (c) (4) status. The organization says that it is non-partisan and does not support, oppose or give money to any candidates or political parties. AARP 's total revenue for 2006 was approximately $1 billion and it spent $23 million on lobbying. Middle - class security has been a major focus for the organization in recent years. AARP also provides extensive consumer information, volunteer opportunities, and events including the annual National Event & Expo (2013 in Las Vegas from May 30 -- June 1 and in Atlanta from October 3 -- 5).
