Minnesota shouldn't be a hard place to grow old, but without a plan that prioritizes seniors and their well-being, our 1 million+ older adults will continue to navigate a long-term care crisis. Our seniors deserve better.
Thank you for voting. The correct answer is C — the 65+ population has grown 33% in just a decade, reflecting a major demographic shift. We can't ignore the need to invest in long-term care.

Retirement isn't an end — it's a powerful new beginning. Across the U.S., seniors are using their skills to support nonprofits, mentor others, drive change and strengthen communities. It's time to ensure MN can support those who give so much. bit.ly/4kkhGmd
The United States is currently experiencing the largest senior population increase in history. By what percentage has the number of Americans aged 65 and older increased over the past decade?
