How is the RW lying about the effects of the tax bill on Medicare ?

Reference: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/11/29/1719511/-The-Republican-tax-bill-will-end-cancer-treatment-for-Medicare-patients

I'm sure they are lying their ass off about this. Thank you in advance!

Rubio didn't pick up because of heavy phone traffic, went to voicemail, left my heated opinion (against the tax bill ofc). Probably chickened out also.

Nelson also didn't pick up, did same thing on voicemail. I really doubt Nelson chickened out but who knows, geeze.

I called my rep Murphy and I talked to her staff member. Left my opinion anyway despite bill already passing the House, ugh.

Please call, everyone.
