Rep. Vern Buchanan, a U.S. Congressman representing Florida’s 16th district since 2007, used his social media platform on July 22, 2025, to highlight ongoing legislative efforts regarding Medicare Advantage and retirement security for nonprofit employees.
In a post at 17:54 UTC, Buchanan announced his participation in a congressional hearing focused on Medicare Advantage. He wrote, “Walking into the @WaysandMeansGOP Health and Oversight hearing on Medicare Advantage. We’re discussing how to strengthen MA and expand preventive care for the 200K seniors in my district and millions across the nation. Tune in: https://t.co/q9jvgtzzXt”.
Later that evening at 21:32 UTC, Buchanan shared news of his discussion with USA Retirement about bipartisan legislation aimed at nonprofit organizations. He stated, “Honored to speak with @usa_retirement about my bipartisan Small Nonprofit Retirement Security Act. My bill ensures small nonprofits have the same access to tax incentives as for-profit organizations, expanding retirement security for millions of Americans.”
At 21:53 UTC, Buchanan reiterated support for improving Medicare Advantage plans through congressional action by the Ways and Means Committee. He posted, “.@WaysandMeansGOP is leading the fight to improve Medicare Advantage so MA plans can continue providing quality outcomes for beneficiaries and value for taxpayers. We must empower every American to be the “CEO of their own health.”
Buchanan has represented Florida’s 16th District since replacing Katherine Harris in Congress in 2007 and previously served in the Florida House of Representatives. Born in Detroit in 1951 and now residing in Sarasota, he holds degrees from Cleary University and the University of Detroit Mercy.
