TV, Digital & Mail Campaign Urges Senator Mark Pryor to “Fight” Devastating Cuts to Seniors’ Care

WASHINGTON – The American Action Network (@AAN) is launching a $250,000 issue advocacy advertising campaign in Arkansas calling on Senator Mark Pryor to fight the Obama Administration’s new cuts to Medicare Advantage. The two-week campaign will include Little Rock broadcast TV, mail and statewide digital ads calling on the Senator to act. Seniors can take action by calling Senator Pryor and signing a petition at DontCutOurMedicare.com. This is part of a $1 million campaign calling on nine Senators and Members of Congress to act.

“The broken promises of Obamacare, which Senator Pryor supported, are now endangering health coverage for 16 million seniors who rely on Medicare Advantage,” said Emily Davis, spokeswoman for American Action Network. “These cuts show Obamacare’s prescription for seniors: risk losing your doctor, pay more, and get fewer benefits. Token support is not enough. It’s time Senator Pryor actually stands up and fights to stop President Obama from gutting Medicare Advantage for Obamacare.”

Key Facts on Proposed Medicare Advantage Cuts:

• Nearly One In Three Seniors Relies on Medicare Advantage, 15.9 Million Americans
• The Obama Administration has proposed cutting Medicare Advantage by 5.9 percent; Obamacare is cutting MA over $156 billion. The new rule will be finalized April 7th.
• A recent AAN poll found 54% of seniors believe the Obama Administration made the “wrong decision” cutting Medicare Advantage
• What Are the Consequences of Medicare Advantage Cuts?
• Seniors Pay More: It Could Cost Seniors as Much as $900 More Next Year in Higher Premiums and Reduced Benefits
• Fewer Benefits: Payment Cuts Will Cause Plans to Drop Out or Reduce Services
• Reduced Access to Physicians: Smaller Doctor Networks Mean Fewer Doctors, Less Choice for Seniors
