  • Allow/Force Medicare to negotiate drug prices
    Like many seniors, I'm now in the "donut hole", meaning I pay full price for my medications. If Medicare used its huge purchasing power to negotiate lower drug costs (the VA pays 40% less for drugs), many seniors would escape this very expensive situation.

  • Opposition to Cuts in Social Security Benefits
    President Obama has made an offer to Republican John Boehner to cut Social Security benefits and leave in place some of the Bush tax cuts for the top 2%. The cuts in Social Security would amount to "a cut of more than 5 percent and more as the years go by." For many retirees this would mean critical cuts to benefits that cover medicine, food, and other daily necessities. We need to stop taking earned and promised benefits from our country's neediest in order to protect the top 2% of the wealthiest individuals from a most deserved tax increase.

  • OBAMA MUST MAKE A PUBLIC STATEMENT ON GMO'S
    GMO's are now an almost mainstream topic, as it should be. President Obama while campaigning, stated he was for GMO labeling, and now has ducked away from this issue. The issue of GMO's is of far greater importance to every human than all the other distracting subjects debated to exhaustion, everyday by the media in the United States. What is more important than knowing; what is in our foods and what our President's opinion is on this?
