Dole has remained active since retiring from public office and has authored several books. He appeared in numerous commercials and television programs and served on various councils. In 2012, he unsuccessfully advocated Senate ratification of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. He initially supported Jeb Bush in the 2016 Republican primaries, but later became the only former Republican presidential nominee to endorse Donald Trump, after Trump clinched the Republican nomination. In 2018, Dole was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for his service to the nation as a "soldier, legislator and statesman," and in 2019, the U.S. Congress unanimously passed a bill promoting the 95-yearold Dole from captain to colonel for his service during World War II.

He is married to former U.S. Senator Elizabeth Dole of North Carolina. She lost her seat in the 2008 elections. Today they reside in Kansas. Dole still holds the record for longest-serving Republican leader. In February 2021, Dole announced he was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer and would undergo treatment. He is receiving immunotherapy to treat the disease, forgoing chemotherapy due to its negative effect on his body.
