Call ‘Em Out: Kyl

Senator Kyl, one of the top Republicans in the Senate, has claimed that reform would cause the rationing of care for America’s seniors. It’s a claim that both AARP (which represents over 40 million seniors) and the non-partisan fact-check website PolitiFact have repeatedly debunked as absolutely false.

But it’s no surprise that Senator Kyl has resorted to lying and scaring seniors to block reform. After all, he has publicly stated that insurance companies don’t need to be “kept honest,” and he even opposes requiring them to provide coverage without discriminating against pre-existing conditions.

Senator Kyl, we’ve had enough of the fear-mongering and lies — we’re calling you out.

Kyl’s lies add up to a clear plan to score political points by tanking reform that Americans need. So, together, it’s time to give Senator Kyl the same treatment as Rep. John Boehner and Gov. Tim Pawlenty before him: It’s time to call him out.
