The senior senator from California is actually supporting the Medicare Prescription Drug Plan, which the AARP has endorsed with the overwhelming majority of its membership's disapproval. The GOP-sponsored bill is - simply put - an abomination which the wingnuts are cramming down the throats of our elders by bum-rushing it through the House and now the Senate. There's so much wrong with this bill, and you can check out the deal here. (My mom pays out almost $2000 every six months for secondary coverage right now. With a diminished Medicare, that will certainly get jacked up.)
Here's Feinstein's number: 202-224-3841. Here's her e-mail link. Here are her branch offices throughout California if you'd like a door to bang on. Here's her snail-mail address:
Senator Dianne Feinstein
United States Senate
331 Hart Senate Office Building
Washington, DC 20510
It's amazing that well-paid politicians really have no perspective when it comes to dangerous bills such a this one. They don't even want to walk a yard in their constituents' shoes.
