On the recordJuly 12, 1995
the Clinton Democrats on the other side of the aisle have tried their hardest to engage in a scare campaign aimed at our senior citizens. The Clinton Democrats think they are scoring political points by scaring seniors into thinking Republicans are trying to rip Medicare out from under them. But I wonder what the Clinton Democrats tell their constituents who are 58 years old. You see, this is the age group that's going to be affected most by the Democrats' plan of maintaining the status quo. This is the age group that will have no Medicare benefits period when they turn 65. This is the age group that will suffer the most. We cannot sit back and do nothing while Medicare continues on its downward slide toward bankruptcy. Republicans want to preserve, protect, and improve Medicare for this and future generations. I ask the Democrats to stop their petty scare campaigns. Work with us to fix Medicare.
