Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., is accused of "lying to Georgians" about the closing of a rural hospital to weaponize misinformation against President Donald Trump and Republicans for a political narrative against "Medicaid cuts."

"Jon Ossoff is lying to Georgians again: St. Mary's Healthcare System is owned and operated by an out-of-state conglomerate whose Trump-hating, pro-DEI Democrat CEO started making cuts to services under President Biden," NRSC Regional Press Secretary Nick Puglia wrote in a statement Thursday.

"While President Trump is working to ensure Medicaid serves Americans who truly need it, Jon Ossoff is trying to cover Democrats' own failures to address rural healthcare by lying to patients and working in lockstep with this CEO who took home over $5 million despite the company's gross financial mismanagement."

The remarks that drew the response were from an Ossoff X post Wednesday.

"St Mary's Hospital in NE Georgia is closing its labor and delivery service, citing Trump's Medicaid cuts," Ossoff wrote. "Women going into labor will now have to drive an hour plus to deliver safely.

"Way to go, GOP."

The facts show St. Mary's only did 312 births last year, which demonstrates it is not quite as vital as Ossoff claims. Also, the nearest labor and delivery hospital of Northeast Georgia Medical Center is just 34 miles away (40 minutes) and not an "hour plus" drive, as Ossoff claimed.

"Democrats like Ossoff let St. Mary's go into financial mismanagement for years until Republicans stepped up this year to pass a $50 billion Rural Health Fund — the single largest investment in rural healthcare in our nation's history, delivered through the Working Family Tax Cuts," Puglia's statement concluded.

The closure had been 18 months in the making, which pins the actions to the previous Biden administration, according to a St. Mary's Healthcare System statement.

Also, its parent company Trinity Health was fined for dismantling its maternity unit at Johnson Memorial Hospital during the Biden administration under the guise of COVID safety guidelines.

The NRSC also highlighted the company's restrictive DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) initiatives under the leadership of CEO Mike Slubowski, who has long been critical of Trump for left-wing agenda items like climate change.

A fiscal year 2024 independent audit found "significant" deficiencies in internal controls and five separate deficiencies in Trinity Health facilities for the misuse of funds. One facility did not report $2 million it received from Joe Biden's American Rescue Plan.

Newsmax reached out to Ossoff's Senate office for a response, but it redirected comment to the senator's campaign staff. An email sent there has not yet received a response.
