Medicare and Mr. McCain

The Democratic Party
pacquiao --

Last week, Senator John McCain took to the floor of the Senate to falsely claim that Medicare savings in health reform would cause seniors to lose their access to health care.

Sadly for Mr. McCain, AARP -- the country's largest seniors advocacy organization -- says no reform proposal on the table would cut guaranteed benefits for seniors.

We bet McCain's constituents will want to know that he's twisting the truth to block health reform -- reform that would help Arizona businesses and families.

Call 'em Out: John McCain. Donate now to help us run online ads in Arizona calling Senator McCain out.

Call out Senator John McCain

McCain isn't just making incorrect claims about reform.

He offered an amendment to Senate legislation that independent Medicare consumer groups said would keep the Medicare trust fund on its current path to bankruptcy.

Reform would strengthen Medicare, cut waste, and put it on firm financial footing for the future. But McCain's amendment would have eliminated reforms, weakened Medicare, and delayed the overall bill.

We need your help to make sure Arizonans know what McCain is willing to do and say to block desperately-needed reform.

Our ads will put the truth in front of tens of thousands of his constituents -- but we need your help to get them up and running:
