All Americans deserve to retire with the confidence that they will be financially secure and have access to high quality health care. Democrats have worked hard to make that possible by creating Social Security and Medicare for seniors and fair pensions and health care for Veterans. But the current Administration has put these benefits at risk by funding irresponsible tax breaks for those who need them least. Instead of providing fair retirement benefits, they have turned their backs on America's seniors and veterans. Democrats want to put seniors and veterans first by providing the meaningful benefits and health care they need and deserve.

Over the past three years, seniors' total spending on prescription drugs has increased by almost 50 percent. (Families USA)
