REP. MALONEY APPLAUDS RELEASEOF THIRD ROUND OF $250 CHECKS FOR

SENIORS CAUGHT IN “DONUT HOLE”-One-time, Tax-Free Payments Part of Extensive Help for Seniors in Health Care Reform Law-Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney (D-Manhattan, Queens) today hailed the release this week of the third

round of tax-free $250 checks from the federal government to seniors who are caught in the dreaded “donuthole” contained in the Medicare Prescription Drug program. The one-time $250 payments are being mailedout every few weeks, as more and more seniors hit the donut hole.

Since June, more than 63,000 New York seniors have been mailed checks, including 30,800 in the latestround mailed on August 10th. The checks are one of the many benefits for seniors included in the health carereform law approved by Congress and signed by President Obama. Starting next year, the health care reformlaw will give those caught in the donut hole a 50% discount on brand-name prescription drugs; in 2020, thenew law will close the donut hole entirely.

The Medicare Prescription Drug benefit -signed into law in 2003 by former President George W. Bush-included a “donut hole” in which seniors lose drug coverage once they have used $2,830 worth of drugs, anddo not regain coverage until they hit the benefit’s catastrophic coverage threshold.

“The ‘donut hole’ was anything but sweet for the 246,000 New Yorkers who were caught in the Medicareprescription drug plan’s coverage gap last year,” said Rep. Maloney. “Thankfully, the health reform packagethat I was proud to support will give $250 checks this year to seniors in the donut hole and a 50% discount onbrand-name prescription drugs next year. And in 2020, the donut hole will be plugged forever.”

Seniors do not need to take any special action to receive their $250 check; Medicare will automatically sendchecks to seniors once they enter the donut hole.

In addition to closing the donut hole, the health reform law will have many other benefits for seniors,including:

* Free preventive care services under Medicare, beginning in 2011;* Extending the solvency of Medicare by an additional 12 years, from 2017 to 2029;* Improving seniors’ access to doctors;* Reduce waste, fraud and abuse;* Improving care by helping doctors communicate and coordinate; and* Expanding home and community-based services to keep seniors in their home, instead of in nursing homes.

Crowley Applauds Administration’sSupport of the Establishment of a

Commission of Inquiry into Crimes AgainstHumanity and War Crimes in Burma

Congressman Joseph Crowley (D-Queens, the Bronx) issued the statementbelow praising the Obama Administration’sannouncement that it would support theestablishment of a Commission of Inquiryinto possible crimes against humanity car-ried out by Burma’s military junta regime.Congressman Crowley, a long-time advo-cate for human rights in Burma, initiatedefforts in Congress calling for the Adminis-tration to support an investigation into crimesin Burma in the summer of 2009.

“It is long overdue that the world ac-knowledges that the Burmese regime is guiltyof heinous and brutal acts against its ownpeople and I applaud today’s announcementby the Obama Administration of its supportfor a Commission of Inquiry into these crimes.

“Burma’s military regime has de-stroyed or forced the abandonment of 3,500villages, raped countless ethnic minoritywomen and recruited thousands of childsoldiers. Millions of innocent civilianshave fled their homes as refugees or inter-

nally displaced persons.“These atrocities are far more than hu-

man rights abuses – they are crimes againsthumanity, punishable under internationallaw. And, unfortunately, without stronginternational action, it is likely that theregime will continue to commit crimesagainst humanity, especially againstBurma’s ethnic minorities.

“I spearheaded the call for the Adminis-tration to take a definitive stand in support ofthe UN investigator’s call for an interna-tional investigation because it is time for theglobal community to act.

“The move brings us one step closer todelivering the justice the Burmese peoplerightfully deserve, but the fight does not endhere. Burma’s regime must stop its brutalcampaign against its own people, enact hu-man rights reforms and free Burma’s legiti-mate leaders from prison. It is time for othernations to join the United States’ call for aninternational investigation to bring Burma’sbrutal regime to justice.”

With 75th Anniversary of Social SecurityApproaching, Rep. Maloney Issues Report

on Social Security Beneficiaries and BenefitsAs Social Security approaches

its 75th anniversary, the U.S. Con-gress Joint Economic Committee(JEC) released a report today thatuses the most current available datafrom the Social Security Adminis-tration to provide a demographicsnapshot of Social Security ben-eficiaries. The report, prepared bythe JEC Majority Staff, providesdetailed analysis on who receivesSocial Security benefits, theamount of those benefits and theextent to which those benefits sus-tain the economic well-being ofspecific populations.

Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney (D-NY), Chair of the JEC, said, “ThisJEC report shines a light on someof the basic information about whoreceives Social Security, facts thatare sometimes forgotten in the heatof the discussion. Social Securityis an economic bedrock for manyof our grandmothers and grandfa-thers, and mothers and fathers. Fornearly two-thirds of elderly Ameri-cans, Social Security is their larg-est source of income and the heartof their economic livelihoods. Butit is also a lifeline for disabledworkers and their families after theunforeseen loss of income, as wellas for the families of a worker wholose their life unexpectedly.”

Highlighted data fromthe JEC report include:

· In 2008, 64 percent of elderlyhouseholds received at least halfof their income from the SocialSecurity program, making it thelargest source of income amongthose households. More than halfof those households received 90percent or more of their incomefrom Social Security programs.

· Average monthly Social Se-curity benefit was $1,064, or$12,772 annually.

· Of the 53 million Social Se-curity beneficiaries, 5 million areages 85 or older.

The JEC report also shows thatwhile there are more than 53 mil-lion Americans who receive So-

cial Security benefits, there arenoticeable discrepancies acrossgender and racial groups.

· Among adult beneficiaries,benefits paid based on a man’s workwere generally higher than thosepaid based on a woman’s. Forexample, in 2009, female retiredworkers received, on average, $300less per month—$3,600 per year—than male retired workers.

· Across all beneficiary cat-egories, the average monthly ben-efit for whites of $1,103 was $197more than the average monthlybenefit for blacks, and $304 morethan the average monthly benefitfor other minorities.

film, TV and digital media in alltheir variety, as art, industry andsocial force—is scheduled to openon January 15, 2011.

As Chair of the Committee onCultural Affairs, Libraries, andInternational Intergroup Rela-tions, Council Member VanBramer was instrumental in se-curing $2 million in City Councilfunding this year for the buildingproject, which doubles the size ofthe Museum, enables it to servetwice as many school groups eachyear and gives the institution astrikingly contemporary physicalform that is as exciting as screenculture itself.

“I am so excited to see thiswonderful work in progress as itnears completion,” CouncilMember Jimmy Van Bramer

stated. “In just a few months, thelong-awaited expansion andrenovation of Museum of theMoving Image will be completeand ready for all of Queens andNew York City to enjoy. I amproud to have joined SpeakerQuinn and the City Council inproviding $2 million in this year’sbudget toward this amazing cul-tural and educational resource.”

Rochelle Slovin stated, “Weare deeply grateful to CouncilMember Van Bramer, SpeakerQuinn and the City Council, as

well as to Queens Borough Presi-dent Helen Marshall, for their far-sighted support of this project.Thanks to their commitment, andto the invaluable leadership ofMayor Michael R. Bloombergand Cultural Commissioner KateD. Levin, a museum that hashelped to educate an entire gen-eration of New York City stu-dents, and contributed to the flour-ishing of our Astoria neighbor-hood, will be an even greater edu-cational resource and culturaldestination in years to come.”

of the Woodside Herald.

It’s That Simple

Dear Editor,

I was amused by the photos ofcertain politicians at the “NightOut Against Crime.” I imaginethat means that an election iscoming up soon. I would sug-gest, given the increase in bur-glaries, robberies, breakins, etc.,(often done by our local punks)we try a “Night Out to Solve aFew Crimes”. It is obvious giventhe increase in crime inWoodside, Sunnyside andAstoria, that we are slowly butsurely heading back towards theDavid Dinkins days of law en-forcement (i.e., no enforcement).I have also noticed a huge in-crease in graffiti and people sleep-ing the park as well as other qual-ity of life crimes. I also wonderwhy the 108th has a constantturnover in its captains.

Dear Editor,

A substantial majority of theAmerican people agree with Ari-zona on illegal aliens because theFederal Government does not en-force a Federal law. It’s that simple.Elitist politicians refuse to acknowl-edge that their constituents demandthat the government enforce the law.What’s so hard about that? Don’tblame Arizona.

Politicians should also notethat a substantial majority of NewYorkers do not want a mosque ator near Ground Zero. It’s thatsimple. The people do not want itthere. Locate it in Woodside, ornorth of Federal Plaza. But nomosque near Ground Zero!

The prolonged recession with itsnear-10% unemployment has slowednew immigrants and sent many im-migrants home, both legal and ille-gal. President Obama can help. $400Billion of last year’s stimulus moneyhas not been spent. The Mexicanwall is shovel-ready, as they say.Build that border wall with stimulusmoney. Create jobs, Help enforcethe law. It’s that simple.
