On the recordJune 16, 2003
Well, Mr. Speaker, there certainly are gaps; and for those senior citizens that are at the low end of the spectrum, they often do not have any coverage whatsoever. And so this, unfortunately, and the gentleman, in his profession, knows this all too well, is forcing senior citizens into a terrible choice, paying their rent, their utilities, or having the prescriptions they need to have sound health. And that, in 2003, in the 21st century, is an unacceptable choice and something that we have the opportunity to remedy; and we should avail ourselves of the opportunity.
