President JoeBiden steps up attack on GOP over Medicare
Biden touted efforts to lower healthcare costs for seniors through the Democratic-led Inflation Reduction Act and a new price drop in premiums for Medicare enrollees, arguing that Republicans hope to stunt that progress by repealing the legislation or reassessing Social Security and Medicare as a whole."I wish I could say Republicans supported this progress in reducing healthcare costs and strengthening Medicare. That would be good for all Americans.
His remarks come just six weeks before the midterm elections as Democrats hope to gain traction with a pivotal demographic of older voters. Biden pointed to the"11-Point Plan to Rescue America" from Sen.
Sweeping reforms to Medicare was a hallmark of the GOP agenda in past years, especially when former House Speaker Paul Ryan developed the House GOP budget, but those efforts have subsided in recent years because former President Donald Trump opposed changes to retirement programs. Biden also took aim at House Republicans' newly released agenda, called the"Commitment to America," suggesting they would repeal the Inflation Reduction Act. Though the plan does not outright call for repealing the legislation, it does argue that it would lead to fewer lifesaving treatments and cures. House Republicans said they plan to tackle improving"health outcomes and ensure better care" with their own plan, though have not released specifics.
