To amend the Older Americans Act of 1965 to authorize appropriations for fiscal years 2025 through 2028.
HR 10056 extends funding authorization for programs under the Older Americans Act of 1965 through fiscal years 2024-2028, replacing all references to "fiscal year 2024" with "each of the fiscal years 2024 through 2028" across seven sections of the law. This bill directly affects seniors aged 60+ and the community-based organizations that provide them with services like nutrition programs, caregiver support, and health services. The key mechanism is simply extending the existing funding authorization period, ensuring current programs can continue without requiring new legislative action for each fiscal year. It does not change program eligibility, benefits, or service requirements - only the duration of authorized funding.
