Ron Barber believes that President Obama's policies have benefited the middle class. With 23 million Americans out of work, 46 million Americans on food stamps, and the country $16 trillion in debt...have Ron Barber and the President helped you? #RonBarber #AZ02 #60PlusAssociation

Watch Ron Barber blame doctors, or as he puts it "health care providers," for health care costs going up. The media ignored it. He lied when said Medicare isn't going to be slashed by $716 billion. It is. Doctors aren't going to be reimbursed at the current Medicare rates, which are already less than regular patients. Good luck finding a doctor to accept Medicare patients. They won't be able to afford it. Watch around 8:38 to see him lie about Medicare and say doctors and providers are overpaid. Call him out!

Delivers clear choice for United States Congress in final debate Tucson - Martha McSally laid out her case for Congress last night on the University of Arizona campus in Tucson. Martha's priority on getting Southern Arizona's economy working again by bringing down the debt, stopping the spending and defending small businesses and families was clear in the final debate of the 2nd District race. "The choice for Southern Arizona is clear. On one hand you have someone who says that he wants to protect the middle class, defend seniors and stand up for small businesses - yet time and time again votes against our community," said Martha McSally. "For me, this campaign is not about politics. This is personal. I know the individuals that Congressman Barber's votes directly hurt. I will go to Congress and I will vote to defend this community and I will stand for Southern Arizona families." "I will be on the side of small businesses as they try to pull this economy out of the recession. I will stand with seniors and stop any cuts to Medicare. And I will stand with the middle class and veterans by making sure every American gets tax relief and all benefits are secure. This is my pledge to Southern Arizona. We've seen Congressman Barber's Washington way - he is more interested in his next election than he is with the next generation. I will work for the future of this country and the future of our families in this community. Congressman Barber's tired, old, partisan ways of Washington are a part of the past. It's time to change this country and reform the way we do business, it's time to change direction." Martha McSally is the first female fighter pilot to fly in combat, and first to command a fighter squadron in combat in United States history. In 2001-2002, Martha McSally earned national recognition for successfully overturning a military policy requiring all U.S. servicewomen to wear Muslim clothing when off base in Saudi Arabia.

Washington Democrats Threaten Devastating Military Cuts Because They Refuse to #StopTheTaxHike on Families and Job Creators WASHINGTON --- Across-the-board cuts would severely threaten our national security but Ron Barber and his Democrat leaders have already voted to use them as a political pawn so they can get the job-destroying tax hikes they want (Roll Call #8, 8/1/2012). Barber and his party are doing everything to distract voters and increase their reelection chances, from denying that the cuts will happen to offering defense contractors incentives to break the law and not hand out pink slips days before the election. clerk.house.gov/evs/2012/roll545.xml "It’s troubling that Ron Barber and his party leaders would use the health of our national security as a ‘weapon’ just so they can continue their reckless spending addiction,” said NRCC Communications Director Paul Lindsay."Arizona families and small business owners do not want these devastating defense cuts and can’t afford more taxes just so Ron Barber can continue spending their tax dollars.” In the third presidential debate, President Obama attempted to distract from the Democrats’ job-destroying policies after the election: "’First of all, the sequester is not something that I proposed. It’s something that Congress has proposed. It will not happen. The budget that we’re talking about is not reducing our military spending, it’s maintaining it,’ [said Obama].” (“Remarks by the President and Governor Romney in the Third Presidential Debate,” The White House, 10/23/2012) www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2012/10/23/rem...ebate In truth, Democrat leaders see devastating defense cuts as a"weapon” in their efforts to increase taxes: "‘That may be the only way to bring some Republicans into a position of talking,’ Sen. Richard J. Durbin of Illinois, the assistant Democratic leader, said late last week. ‘We're not going to unload our weapons at this point.’” (Lisa Mascaro,"Congressional Democrats Dig In on Fiscal Cliff Scenario,” Los Angeles Times, 7/16/2012) www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-cong...story Indeed, the very idea of sequestration originated with Democrats: "The book ‘The Price of Politics,’ by Washington Post Associate Editor Bob Woodward, makes it clear the idea for the draconian spending cuts originated in the White House – and not in Congress.” (Austin Wright,"Bob Woodward Book Could Bolster Republican Attack on W.H.,” Politico, 9/7/2012) Washington Democrats tried to downplay sequester by requesting that defense contractors"hold off on layoff warnings.” (Jeanne Sahadi,"White House to Contractors: Hold Off on Layoff Warnings,” CNN, 9/28/2012) ow.ly/eJoPc #RonBarber #AZ02 #NRCC #MarthaMcSally
