Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook.

BEFORE BUSH VISIT, BASS & BRADLEY
MUST SPEAK OUT ON MEDICARE CUT
Today, Bush Unveiled Budget with $36 Billion Cut
On Wednesday, He Travels to NH to Promote It
CONCORD, NH - Congressmen Bass and Congressman Bradley must take a stand on the controversial new $36 billion cut that President Bush proposed to Medicare today, before the President arrives in New Hampshire on Wednesday to promote his budget.
"The deep Medicare cuts that President Bush proposed today would hurt New Hampshire seniors even worse that the recent fiasco they created with Medicare Part D. Our Congressmen have a duty to take a stand on this controversial Medicare cut before the President arrives in New Hampshire on Wednesday to promote it," said Kathy Sullivan, Chair of the New Hampshire Democratic Party.
"First, Congressmen Bass and Bradley let the drug company lobbyists write a Medicare drug plan that has left thousands of seniors without the prescriptions they need. Now George Bush wants to continue massive subsidies to drug and insurance companies while cutting the Medicare that 179,564 Granite Staters depend on. Before our two congressmen take the stage with President Bush on Wednesday, their constituents deserve to know if they will stand up to his controversial Medicare cuts."
According to the Associated Press today, "Bush also seeks to cut projected spending on mandatory entitlement programs by $65 billion over five years, with the bulk coming from measures designed to hold down outlays for Medicare, the health-care program for the elderly, by $36 billion through 2011."

Bush Protest
XX TOPS with T.V. ad description XX
CONCORD, N.H. - Groups opposing President Bush's policies
plan to run critical television ads and protest his visit to New
Hampshire on Wednesday.
The groups, Americans United and the New Hampshire Citizens
Alliance, are holding a press conference today in Concord to
discuss their complaints with the administration. The television
ads focus on high fuel prices, health care, and ethics scandals
involving the Republican leadership.
President Bush is scheduled to be in Manchester on Wednesday to
promote themes from his State of the Union address. He will speak
at a luncheon hosted by the New Hampshire Business and Industry
Association. He also is expected to present the President's
Volunteer Service Award to Vernette Reimel, an Americorps VISTA
volunteer who works with the elderly.

Bush's $2.7 trillion plan tilts to defense at home and abroad
WHITE HOUSE - President Bush's 2007 budget favors defense
and homeland security, while cutting growth in Medicare and other
programs.
The blueprint the president sends to Congress today proposes
spending more than two-point-seven trillion dollars. Bush is
proposing to save 36 billion over the next five years by
trimming growth in Medicare.
New Hampshire Senator Judd Gregg, chairman of the Budget
Committee, says he's pleased with the president's budget.
Gregg says it's good health and budget policy to try to keep
Medicare spending down.
The president's plan lays out a path to achieving two of his
chief domestic goals: making permanent his first-term tax cuts and
cutting the deficit, which has soared in his administration.
The administration also will seek another 120 billion
dollars for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. That's on top of a
nearly five percent rise for the Pentagon.
