Good morning!
After being exposed for his support of “eliminating” the ACA, my opponent @TonyGonzales4TX launched a new "health care" ad today featuring his most blatant attempt to deceive voters yet.
Don’t worry, we’ve got the receipts. THREAD

In his ad, Tony claims he'll “always protect coverage for pre-existing conditions.”
But here’s the extent of his plans on health care:
Step 1: Eliminate the ACA during a pandemic.
Step 2: ???

Tony has no plan for Texans who’d lose their coverage and protections if he gets his way and eliminates the ACA. He doesn’t even mention health care on the issues page of his website!
Repealing the ACA without a replacement plan? Sounds pretty familiar!
Tony Gonzales is using the same tired playbook as other Republicans who are lying about protecting patients with pre-existing conditions.

Remember when @PolitiFact rated Georgia Republican David Perdue’s claims on pre-existing conditions FALSE? https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/sep/03/david-perdue/georgia-sen-perdues-record-preexisting-conditions-/
Or when @PolitiFact rated Arizona Republican Martha McSally’s claims on pre-existing conditions FALSE? https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/jun/25/martha-mcsally/arizona-senate-candidate-makes-health-care-pledge-/
Or when the @washingtonpost gave top Tony supporter President Trump’s repeated claims on pre-existing conditions “Bottomless Pinocchios”? https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/06/29/bottomless-pinocchio-trumps-claim-that-he-will-always-protect-those-with-preexisting-conditions/

...after story, Republican politicians are getting called out for lying to voters about health care.
Tony Gonzales is no different.

This is nothing new for him – Tony has already been caught trying to deceive voters in his TV ads. We’ll be here holding him accountable every time he tries to mislead South and West Texans. https://www.expressnews.com/news/politics/texas_legislature/article/San-Antonio-congressional-candidate-used-faux-15539053.php
The stakes are too high. There are more than 300,000 Texans in #TX23 alone who have pre-existing conditions like asthma, diabetes, and high-blood pressure.
In Congress, I’ll fight for the people of this district, and unlike Tony Gonzales, I won’t deceive voters to get there.

Make no mistake that health care is on the ballot this year. We have just 20 days until early voting begins in Texas – join our fight today: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/ginaortizjones
