With a month to go before the election, Democratic 2nd Congressional District candidate Ann McLane Kuster kicked off a week of discussing Medicare in Salem Monday.
Kuster spoke to about 10 seniors at the Greystone Farm assisted living facility on Main Street Monday morning and read excerpts from the book she wrote with her mother, former longtime state legislator Susan McLane, called “The Last Dance: Facing Alzheimer’s with Love & Laughter.”
Kuster then described the contrasts between herself and her opponent, incumbent Republican Congressman Charles Bass, on the issue of Medicare, saying that Bass twice supported to budget proposed by vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan that would impose “radical” changes to Medicare.
