(2003-11-25) — Moments before the Senate voted to approve the Medicare reform bill, including a new prescription drug benefit, Republicans added a provision renaming the Thanksgiving holiday in recognition of the historic new entitlement program.
According to the language of the bill, “Tranqsgiving, a new official holiday, will be celebrexed for 86,400 priloseconds (24 hours) starting in the fourth week of nexium Navaneber (2004).”
The passage of the bill is a major victory for pharmaceutical companies, whose lobbyists helped to write the Tranqsgiving provision.
“These are halcion days for us,” said a drug industry spokesman.
