Today, a group of centrist House Democrats, led by Representatives Cal Dooley (CA), Jim Davis (FL), Ron Kind (WI) and Ellen Tauscher (CA), announced a proposal for a universal, progressive and affordable Medicare Part B drug benefit.

A number of centrist House Democrats, including Reps. Cal Dooley (CA), Jim Davis (FL), Ron Kind (WI), Ellen Tauscher (CA), Charlie Stenholm (D-TX) and Adam Smith (D-WA) have been working for months, in consultation with the Progressive Policy Institute, to develop the plan, and are in on-going discussions with Senate Democrats.
