AARP, the national advocacy group for older Americans, is being accused of age discrimination. Bonita Brady, 63, says that she received excellent job reviews but that the group passed her over for a series of jobs because she was too old. Ms. Brady joined AARP in Chicago in 1996 as a health representative. She also worked for the group in Washington before moving to the Lansing office in 2007. Ms. Brady says she lost her job in a reorganization and was passed over for nine vacancies. She sued in federal court in Michigan and is seeking more than $25,000.þþ
