The House Concurrent Resolution proposes the establishment of a Senior Task Force on Fraud Prevention in Louisiana to address the increasing incidence of fraud targeting elderly individuals. With over 84,000 Louisianans falling victim to fraud in 2024, resulting in significant financial losses, the resolution highlights the vulnerability of older adults due to factors such as accumulated savings, limited digital literacy, and social isolation. The task force will consist of ten members, including representatives from the governor's office, the attorney general's office, AARP, law enforcement, and financial institutions, and is tasked with studying the economic and human impact of fraud on seniors, reviewing existing practices, and making recommendations to combat this issue.

The task force is required to submit a written report of its findings and recommendations to the Louisiana legislature, the governor, and the attorney general by February 1, 2026. An organizational meeting will be convened by AARP Louisiana by August 1, 2025, to elect a chairman and other necessary officers. The resolution emphasizes the need for a coordinated response to protect vulnerable populations from financial exploitation and identity theft, and it mandates that the attorney general's office provide staff support to the task force as needed.
