Washington, D.C. - Rep. Bruce Braley (IA-01) today released the following statement on the latest budget from Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.):
"I opposed previous attempts to dramatically transform the Medicare program in Congressman Ryan's previous budgets, and I continue to oppose those efforts now. The Medicare system has provided generations of Iowans with high-quality care. Our current and future retirees have been made a promise and they've been paying into the system for decades based on that proimse?and that promise is one we should keep."
