The Club for Growth PAC will begin airing this TV ad tomorrow in Idaho's 1st district.
WASHINGTON, DC - Opening a new front in the fall elections, liberal representatives Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Charles Rangel (D-NY) are featured prominently in a campaign advertisement funded by the political arm of the influential Club for Growth. Pelosi and Rangel would become Speaker of the House and Chairman of the tax-writing Ways and Means Committee respectively should Democrats win a majority in the House of Representatives. Rangel said recently that Democrats would raise taxes if he became Chairman.
"Take home pay, jobs and economic growth are on the ballot this November, and putting liberals in charge of the purse strings would threaten all of them. The liberal tax hike agenda is clear: no more $1,000 per child tax credit, raise tax rates across the board, bring the death tax back from the grave, and jack up the costs of investing. That's a recipe for economic disaster, and voters should think twice before giving them control," said Pat Toomey, President of the Club for Growth.
The advertisement will begin to air Saturday in Idaho's 1st Congressional district, where Republican Bill Sali is running against Democrat Larry Grant for the seat being vacated by Butch Otter, who is running for Governor. The ad is a 1,000 point media buy costing $168,000. The Club for Growth PAC has endorsed Mr. Sali in the race.
The Club for Growth PAC is considering running similar advertisements across the country.
