A new Jeb Bush super PAC ad touts his governorship and the efforts made to fight the “Obamacare expansion.” Just one thing: That law didn’t pass until three years after Bush left office.

The new spot, called “Three Governors,” contrasts Bush with Govs. Chris Christie of New Jersey and John Kasich of Ohio—two other moderate Republican presidential contenders.

It begins by saying Bush was the only governor to win national praise “for tough leadership handling nine hurricanes”—a slightly odd bragging point, given that Ohio doesn’t exactly have a hurricane problem.

A few seconds later, the ad’s narrator says, “Which governor led the fight to stop Obamacare expansion in his state?”

Then there’s a swooshy sound as a checkmark lights up next to Bush’s face. The line refers to the Medicaid expansion, a plank of the Affordable Care Act that made the program available to basically all low-income adults living in states that agreed to take additional federal dollars. Many states governed by Republicans refused the additional federal money, arguing that expanded Medicaid rolls would cost them so much more in the long run that the temporary financial injection wouldn’t have been worth it.

This fight played out in Florida with no dearth of drama. Republican Gov. Rick Scott supported expanding the Medicaid rolls in 2013, but the Republican House—led by then-Speaker Will Weatherford—blocked that effort (Scott later opposed legislation that would have expanded Medicaid under different conditions).

But the conflict over the law was years after Bush’s governorship ended, when he was working extensively on education policy issues. He was a popular figure among Florida Republicans (and still is), but at the time not an elected one.

Asked how Bush led the anti-expansion fight, Right to Rise spokesman Paul Lindsay emailed links to a National Review report that Bush privately encouraged state lawmakers to reject the expansion. He also emailed a link to a CNN story where the former governor “said he had reservations about the Medicaid expansion.”

Weatherford, who has endorsed the former governor and is a campaign surrogate, told The Daily Beast that Bush played an outsize role in getting Republicans in the state house to come together in opposition to Medicaid expansion. And he said Bush’s role was timely; the former governor spoke with House members after the Republican-controlled Senate passed legislation that would have accepted the expansion.

“Gov. Bush was instrumental in helping us hold the line in the Florida House to make sure that Medicaid expansion did not happen,” Weatherford said. “If Jeb Bush hadn’t come in and been as emphatic as he was, I don’t know if we could have held the line.”

That said, others say that the ad’s characterization of Bush as the leader of the fight is a wee overblown.

“There were a lot of other people—including, in its most recent iteration, Rick Scott—who would beg to differ on who led the fight,” said Rick Wilson, a Republican consultant based in Florida (who has done one ad for a pro-Marco Rubio super PAC this cycle). “All ads push the line on things like that, and ‘led the fight’ is a phrase people are very comfortable using, even when it doesn’t necessarily comport with the actual facts of the matter. I try to have candidates be more careful with that.”
