WASHINGTON,
D.C. – U.S. Representative Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) issued today’s “Bush Administration’s
Misstatement of the Day” on prescription drugs.
President
Bush, referring to the prescription drug conference report said:
“It
is a good piece of legislation.” (CNN, 11/17/03)
However,
a picture is worth a thousand words. Last week, seniors did not
attend an event in phoenix with Bush Administration officials to listen
to President Bush's address calling on Congress to pass the legislation.
Seniors
across the country oppose the Republican proposal because it threatens
the future of Medicare and fails to provide a comprehensive, voluntary
and affordable prescription drug benefit.
