On the recordNovember 15, 2005
Americans have benefited significantly from medical advancements throughout the past 40 years, and Medicare must also evolve with the changing technology. Today marks an historic date for the Medicare program. For the first time, America's seniors will have the opportunity to enroll in a voluntary prescription drug benefit that will meet their needs. I would like to encourage all seniors to sign up for this valuable benefit. For more information on how to register, and this is a special exclusive surprise for biased ABC News, seniors can call 1-800-Medicare or visit www.medicare.gov. Seniors can also contact professional pharmacists in their communities for additional details about the program. By strengthening Medicare, President Bush and Congress have delivered a program to ensure America's seniors live healthier, happier, and longer. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September 11. ____________________
