New TV and Radio Ads in Alaska
Club for Growth PAC Releases New TV and Radio Ads in Alaska Congressional Race
Washington - Today, the Club for Growth PAC begins airing a new television ad in Alaska as part of its ongoing ad buy as well as a new radio ad. The television ad will run on broadcast television and cable systems throughout the state through primary day (listen to radio ad here).
"It's sad about Don Young because after thirty-five years in Washington, he became just another Washington politician," said Club for Growth Executive Director David Keating.
Both the television and radio ads criticize Young for inserting a $10 million earmark for a road in Florida that would benefit a real estate developer that raised $40,000 for Young's campaign (Anchorage Daily News, 04/21/08). And just this year, Don Young broke his pledge to oppose all tax increases and voted with the Democrats to raise income taxes (RC #330, 05/15/08). The radio ad also informs voters that Young was absent from committee hearings 75% of the time since 2006.
"If Alaskans want to elect a true reformer, it is clear that Don Young does not fit the bill," said Keating. "In contrast, Sean Parnell has a record of conservatism and reform and that's why he was endorsed by Alaska's popular governor, Sarah Palin."
