 NYT Correspondent Falsely Reports House Members Voted to Exempt Themselves From GOP Health Care Bill
Posted By Alex Griswold On May 4, 2017 @ 4:34 pm In Issues | No Comments

A New York Times correspondent falsely reported Thursday on Twitter that members of the House of Representatives unanimously voted to exempt themselves from the Republican health care bill.

A day earlier, reporters noticed that a provision in the American Health Care Act would exempt lawmakers and their staff from losing some of the repealed Obamacare provisions. In response to the criticism, House leadership announced they would vote separately on the issue.
