Seniors Thank Rep. Ellmers for Protecting Medicare in New Campaign

Promises Made, Promises Kept

RALEIGH, N.C. – The 60 Plus Association, nationally recognized as the conservative alternative to the liberal AARP, today launched a new campaign in North Carolina’s 2nd Congressional District, thanking Rep. Renee Ellmers for protecting Medicare during the recent budget debates.

“Rep. Renee Ellmers proved she is different from many in Washington,” said Jim Martin, Chairman of the 60 Plus Association.  “Rep. Ellmers did what she promised she would do:  protect Medicare for North Carolina’s seniors.  She voted for the House budget proposal, which strengthens and preserves Medicare, and in doing so, helped ensure the program would be available for current and future seniors.  On behalf of the 60 Plus Association, I would like to thank Rep. Ellmers for standing up for North Carolina seniors and protecting Medicare – just like she promised she would.”

The campaign, which consists of direct mail and phone calls, will begin on April 21.
