USA Next

(Redirected from United Seniors Association)

USA Next is a United States group that claims to work towards "Building a Legacy of Freedom for America's Families". It presents itself as a conservative senior citizen's organization, although the number of members it has has been challenged.

USA Next presents itself as an interest group geared toward senior citizens, and as an alternative to the AARP. The organization, however, has no age requirement for membership.

Since the beginning of President George W. Bush's second term, USA Next has focused almost exclusively on pressing the Social Security privatization package proposed by Bush, while at the same time attempting to discredit the AARP, claiming it is a front group for liberal interests (the AARP has traditionally been non-partisan).

In February of 2005, USA Next hired the advertising agency behind the infamous Swift Boat Veterans for Truth campaign that attacked former presidential candidate John F. Kerry. The group gained instant notoriety late in that month when they placed an advertisement on several conservative web sites and blogs. This advertisement suggested that the AARP was against American troops, and for gay marriage, by placing a large red 'x' over a picture of a soldier and a large green check mark over a picture of a just-married gay couple. In March, 2005, the couple pictured in the advertisement filed a USD$25 million lawsuit against USA Next, alleging that group used the couple's image without their permission.

USA Next is headed by Charlie Jarvis, a former deputy undersecretary of the Interior in the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations. It claims over 1.5 million members, although liberal bloggers have disputed this, noting that in 2003, the organization claimed that it received no income from membership dues.
