Candidates
Alan Grayson
Florida -- U.S. Senate
Alan Grayson says what all progressives think. He’s not afraid to stand up to Wall Street and the big corporations. And on the campaign trail, he’s not afraid to run as a bold progressive.
Every step of the way — from Wall Street reform to expanding Social Security to being a national leader for Medicare expansion — Alan Grayson has stood with progressives as one of our boldest and most reliable allies.
He is the only candidate in the race who has consistently said NO to cutting Social Security and YES to expanding Social Security benefits. He is the only candidate who favors strong Wall Street reform and rejects campaign cash from Goldman Sachs and other big banks.
Alan is a national leader for expanding Medicare. You’d be able to buy insurance through Medicare instead of being at the mercy of for-profit insurance companies. And his “Seniors Have Eyes, Ears, and Teeth Act” would eliminate the arbitrary exclusion from Medicare coverage of eyeglasses, eye exams, hearing aids, hearing exams, and dental care.
