WASHINGTON — House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas) today decried a Democrat campaign designed to mislead seniors about the recently enacted Medicare prescription drug plan. House Democrat leaders have armed their members with a ready-to-use Microsoft PowerPoint presentation designed to deceive and frighten American seniors, millions of whom are relying on the new program to afford their medication.
“The Democrats are playing games with seniors’ lives,” DeLay said. “Trying to censor public information about Medicare’s new prescription drug coverage, while financing a campaign of deceit to frighten seniors about their coverage is hypocrisy at its most dangerous.
“This is constituent service at its worst,” DeLay said.
Below are only some of the intentional inaccuracies contained in congressional Democrats’ prepared presentations to seniors for the President’s Day recess:
In December, President Bush signed a bipartisan bill to strengthen and secure Medicare with competitive reforms and a prescription drug benefit for all seniors. Seniors will receive their prescription drug card this summer.
