Congressman Murphy/Courtney to introduce legislation to improve, fix Medicare Part D Drug Program

Fixing the Medicare Part D prescription drug program is long overdue...

On Tuesday, April 3, 2007 at 12:30pm, Congressmen
Joe Courtney (CT-02) and Chris Murphy (CT-05) will host a joint press conference to announce legislation they intend to offer in Congress to improve and expand the Medicare Part D prescription drug program.

Murphy and Courtney have long been advocates for fixing certain harmful provisions in the prescription drug program to give Connecticut 's seniors a program with real savings and without penalties.

The Murphy/Courtney joint presser will happen tomorrow at 12:30 tomorrow, Room 1B at the LOB (State Capitol). I'll provide a full round-up of the event tomorrow including interviews with Congressman Murphy and Courtney tomorrow.
