Ryan: Both parties use seniors as a political weapon

In April, House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-WI, became the face of the Republican’s budget message when he unveiled their “Path to Prosperity” plan. Since then, the Janesville Republican has been called everything from a potential presidential candidate to the reason Democrats won a recent upset election in a New York U.S. House race. In a recent exclusive interview with Wisconsin Health News, Ryan talks about why the time to change Medicare is now, the politics of seniors, and why his plan would mean more programs like BadgerCare.
