SCHAKOWSKY: REPUBLICAN SHAM MEDICARE PRESCRIPTION DRUG 
PLAN HARMFUL TO WOMEN
 

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Representative Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) said today that the Republican Medicare prescription drug proposal would have detrimental effects on women, especially the poorest and sickest women in the country.  

Schakowsky joined U.S. Representative Louise Slaughter (D-NY) in releasing a fact sheet from the National Women’s Law Center outlining how the Republican sham proposal would leave many older women with higher out of pocket costs, higher co-payments, and less access to needed prescription drugs.
