MADISON - Wisconsin's older residents say Gov. Scott Walker's proposal to cut funding for the state's popular SeniorCare program could leave them struggling to make ends meet.
Walker's proposal would require SeniorCare enrollees to first sign up for the Medicare Part D prescription drug program and use state benefits under SeniorCare as a supplement. The cut could save the state $15 million over the next two years.
Walker resurrected the plan after the Legislature rejected the idea in 2011 with bipartisan opposition.
