EXCLUSIVE - An outside group that backs Republican causes is going up in 11 congressional districts controlled by House Democrats with ads targeting the $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief package being pushed by President Biden and congressional Democrats.
The American Action Network (AAN) on Sunday is expanding an issue advocacy campaign it originally launched last month that takes aim at what it argues is House Speaker Nancy Pelosi s liberal stimulus.
The ads, shared first with Fox News, will be seen in House districts with Democrats who are potentially vulnerable in next year s midterm elections, when Republicans hope to win back the majority in the chamber they lost in the 2018 midterm elections.
