Medicare Part D flawed and unfair

My husband and I have decided that we can't afford to be sick.

The full cost of one medication increased by 200 percent this month.

We are victims of a flawed and unfair Medicare Part D drug program.

Dan Seals is committed to finding ways to overhaul the Medicare drug program so that all seniors can get their necessary medications at a fair and reasonable price.

Dan supports creating a national prescription drug benefit in place of unreliable private plans.

Dan will also work to reduce the huge costs of the program by allowing the government to use its enormous buying power to negotiate drug prices, as the Veterans Administration has done successfully for years.

Mark Kirk voted for the complicated and expensive Medicare Part D program, then voted against allowing the government to negotiate prices with the drug companies.

I am voting for Seals and encourage other concerned seniors to vote for him as well.

I believe that Dan will effect the necessary changes to ensure that all seniors will have access to affordable prescription drugs.
