Tell the GOP: Protect the Promise of Medicare

Sign the petition below to stand with Senator Ed Markey and protect Medicare.

Fifty years ago, when senior citizens got sick, they were in real trouble — the private market often would not insure them, and the public sector turned a blind eye.

Creating Medicare changed all that, and for the last five decades, American seniors have enjoyed guaranteed access to healthcare. This is a bedrock program that is working, and Medicare beneficiaries have spent a lifetime paying into a system that promised to be there for them when they grew older. That’s why Republican plans to destroy Medicare as we know it need to be rejected.

We need to strengthen Medicare and make it smarter and more efficient, and that’s why I stand with Senator Ed Markey in supporting the promise of Medicare.
