Americans for Prosperity Action is launching an advertising campaign hitting swing state Democrat senators on their economic records on the economy, The Daily Wire has learned.
The advertisements, part of a $3.5 million advertising campaign from AFP Action, focus on Sens. Jon Tester (MT), Sherrod Brown (OH), and Bob Casey (PA), featuring constituent testimonies on the state of the economy.
“I’m very worried about where the country is headed,” a Pennsylvania resident named Jackie says in an ad viewed by The Daily Wire. “I have to work three jobs just to get by,” a resident named Jack says. “I cannot name one thing that Bob Casey has done to help my family,” a woman named Heather says. Casey is facing off against Republican businessman Dave McCormick.
“Americans are facing record-high prices at the grocery store and gas pumps, a direct result of the failed Biden-Harris policies supported by Senators Jon Tester, Sherrod Brown, and Bob Casey,” AFP Action Director Nathan Nascimento told The Daily Wire. “Each of these career politicians are responsible for record high inflation that is harming everyday Americans. They are out of touch and disconnected from how people are suffering from their failures.”
Another advertisement from AFP Action features testimonies from Montana residents before urging viewers to vote for Republican Tim Sheehy.
“Jon Tester has been in Washington for 20 years … he’s changed, and really not for the better,” a Missoula, Montana resident named Joe explains in a minute-long advertisement. “Jon Tester says he’s fighting for us but truly we’re fighting the problems that he created.”
“I’m worried about where our country is going, and I’m worried that my kids are going to grow up in a world that’s vastly different from the one I grew up in,” a resident of Missoula named Jill states in the ad.
Another advertisement hits Brown, who is facing off against Bernie Moreno, similarly critiquing him for his record on the economy and inflation.
“My grocery bills have went up, my gas bills have went up,” Jonathan of Mansfield, Ohio explains. “The Inflation Reduction Act has cost a trillion dollars. The taxpayers are absolutely paying the bills. We pay for all the wrong decisions.”
“Sherrod Brown failed Ohio families, he doesn’t deserve another six years,” the advertisement states.
Brown and Tester’s races have been categorized as toss-ups, while Casey’s race is said to be leaning Democrat. With Democrats currently holding a slim 51-49 advantage in the Senate, the three races could determine control of the upper chamber.
