While Democrats insist that $500 billion in cuts to Medicare

heavily Democratic counties in his home state from the cuts. If those
massive cuts to the program won’t hurt people on Medicare Advantage,
why did Nelson fight to get exemptions for Palm Beach, Dade, and
Broward counties?

Gee - I wonder why?

So, he shouldn't fight for his constituents?

Would you bitch that he wasn't representing his constituents if he
just went along with the legislation?
