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noticed that a provision in the American Health Care Act would exempt lawmakers and their staff from losing some of the repealed Obamacare provisions.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.
The House voted 429-0 to pass a bill rectifying the mistake, preventing lawmakers from being exempted. But the New York Times‘ chief White House correspondent, Peter Baker, apparently misunderstood the vote.

Seems Mr. Baker has a problem with the truth. Either that or he is just plain ignorant.
Carlos Slim undermining our gubmint again!
Dems hates that
Pelosi is correct when she stated healthcare is being destroyed. "HERS", she will no longer get this special privilege benefit.
That's why I never, never read the NYT, WP, or Baltimore Sun. And the happiest day in my life is when I cancelled the Daily Disappointment after 30 years !
As long as they all vote to prevent exemption and force themselves to participate this time - there's a chance it might get fixed - as soon as some representative or senator comes down with something and the insurance company denies care!
He didn't misunderstand anything he's a lying liberal POS.
