Claim: An attack ad from a Republican-leaning group accuses Democratic Sen. Patty Murray of abusing "families" and "children" — but provides no support for those claims. The group's website even criticizes Murray for casting a vote in favor of expanding health insurance to millions of children — a vote also cast by the group's own CEO, former Republican Sen. Norm Coleman. The ad by the American Action Network began airing July 13 in Washington state with an initial buy of more than $750,000.
