On Capitol Hill, Republicans argue for a step-by-step approach to health care reform to reduce health care costs and avoid the excesses of a 2000-page, trillion-dollar bill that would increase premiums, increase the debt, cut Medicare, and put government in control of health care decisions.
Republican senators emphasize that funding health care reform by cutting seniors Medicare is unacceptable. Any Medicare funds should go to preserving Medicare for our seniors not funding a new government program.
