ISSUE BRIEF | Past research revealed 50 percent or more Americans are economically insecure, struggling to meet basic needs or plan for the future.

RELAB POLICY NOTE | Official U.S. poverty rates significantly undercount America’s elderly poor. According to internationally-recognized relative poverty measures, more than 12 million older Americans are poor.

CHARTBOOK | ReLab's chartbook documenting retirement insecurity and the decline in older workers' bargaining power is a resource for workers, employers, media, policymakers, scholars, and the broader public to answer questions about the state of older working America and retirement income security.

WORKING PAPER | This report contributes to a broader understanding of elderly poverty by examining the extent of elderly poverty using different poverty measures.

WORKING PAPER | The recent revision of the World Bank’s global poverty estimates based on a new $1.25 (2005 PPP) poverty line underlines their unreliability and lack of meaningfulness.
