I believe we need to support Senior Citizens. Our seniors should not have to choose between medication and groceries. That’s why I supported the Affordable Care Act, which is one of the first steps in closing the “donut hole” created by Medicare Part D. During the 111th Congress, I voted to appropriate over $7 million to the state of Florida to pay for meals served at senior centers, as well as home-delivered meals. Before becoming a Member of Congress, I helped found the Alliance for Aging Research to promote medical research that helps improve the quality of life as we age.
