Mitt Romney didn't tell the truth about his tax plan, his plan for Americans with pre-existing conditions, his Medicare plan, nor the President's Medicare plan. Why would Romney not tell the truth about what he'd do as President? Because his real plans would hurt the middle class.

April 15, 2011; Steve Southerland voted to cut Medicare. But there's more. Under Southerland's plan, seniors would have to negotiate directly with insurance companies. So when a loved one who relies on Medicare fell ill ... or had an accident ... Steve Southerland: if you don't want Medicare to change...it's time to change your Congressman.

Congressman Duffy said he'd bring the axe. And did he ever. Trying to gut Medicare. Undermining Medicare warned the nonpartisan AARP. Essentially ending it. And increasing costs over six thousand a year. But Duffy's pay? He voted to protect it. And give Congress taxpayer-funded health care - for life. Congressman Duffy just doesn't get it.

President Obama shares how people with disabilities have help shaped America to be a more accessible, inclusive and stronger country. Together we're making sure more Americans have access to quality, affordable health care and education opportunities.

There are now more investments in educational opportunities through the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act which helps young adults with disabilities get the education and training they need to succeed.

Harold Pollack teaches health policy and public health. When his mother-in-law died suddenly eight years ago, he and his wife became responsible for his brother-in-law Vincent, who is developmentally disabled. Without help from Medicaid and Medicare they wouldn't have been able to save for their daughters' college or prepare for their future.

Voiceover: "He says..."

Mitt Romney: "President Obama and I both care about poor and middle-class families."

Voiceover: "But this is what the budget plan Mitt Romney supports actually does. More huge tax breaks skewed to the wealthy. While cutting nearly eight hundred billion from Medicaid even though middle-class families rely on Medicaid to help loved ones cover nursing-home care. And it helps parents support children with disabilities. If Mitt Romney really 'cares' wouldn't we see it in his priorities?"
