Senator Blanche Lincoln spoke about
prescription drugs in Little Rock today. Lincoln said reimporting
prescription drugs from Canada may not be the final solution to
high drug costs, but Congress must push forward such legislation to
accomodate the growing senior population.
Lincoln spoke at a monthly AARP Arkansas meeting and urged
seniors to take advantage of benefits passed with last year`s
Medicare expansion.
While she said there are problems with the reform -- including
not educating seniors enough about its benefits -- she said it was
necessary to pass it so that Congress could test it and propose
bills to solve discrepencies.
