Subject: Text of my resignation letter to AARP


Dear AARP:

Enclosed please find my membership card to AARP. Please cancel my membership immediately.

You have, without my permission, used my membership dues to finance special interest lobbying in support of the Republican Right Wing’s so-called prescription drug plan for Medicare.

You have further misappropriated membership dues for television ads sanctioned by right wing CEO William Novelli, champion of extremist Newt Gingrich and other anti-American politicians and lobbyists, who seek to undermine the will of the members of your organization.

You are in breach of contract with your membership, by having committed fraud, misrepresentation, and breach of your fiduciary duty by using AARP to promote the narrow special interest agenda of Novelli, Gingrich, et al.

I am ashamed and saddened that I ever bothered joining your organization. I have been betrayed by having been used as an instrument for the Republican Right Wing.

I will continue in all ways possible to alert people to the truth of AARP and do my level best to get as many people as possible to resign from your organization.

If money is all you care about, then it looks like the American people are just going to have to take it away from you.

Maybe then you’ll listen.


Sincerely,


Claudia D. Dikinis
