Third Act Illinois: Experienced Americans who are fighting to protect the climate and strengthen democracy.

“Experienced Americans” are the fastest-growing segment of the population: 10,000 people pass the 60-year mark every day. As a generation, we have unprecedented skills and resources that we can bring to bear. Washington and Wall Street listen when we speak because we vote and because we have a large—maybe an overlarge—share of the country’s assets. Many of us have kids and grandkids and great-grandkids: we have, in other words, very real reasons to worry and to work.
