Campaign Unavailable

The Alliance for Retired Americans has expressed outrage that the Bush Administration is using taxpayer money to promote the new Medicare prescription drug law in a deceptive way. The $12.6 million advertising campaign -- entitled "Same Medicare. More Benefits" -- is slated to spend $9.5 million on TV ads and $3.1 million for newspaper, radio and internet ads. The Alliance has repeatedly denounced the new plan as "hopelessly flawed" and opposes the use of taxpayer monies to finance what it calls a "blatantly political Medicare ad campaign."

It is vitally important that you act today to let the White House and your elected representatives know how you feel about this issue.
