Hagen’s new TV ad focuses on middle-class families
GREENSBORO — State Sen. and U.S. Senate candidate Kay Hagan (D-Guilford) highlights her commitment to helping middle class families in North Carolina who have been left behind with her second television commercial of the general election.
“Level” emphasizes Kay’s belief that the special interests in Washington have taken precedence over the best interests of hardworking North Carolinians. “Level” began airing late Monday evening in several markets across the state, in addition to “Voices,” which was released last week.
“It’s clear that North Carolina is being left behind while people like Elizabeth Dole choose politics over people, to the detriment of working families across the state,” said Hagan Campaign Communications Director Colleen Flanagan.
“How are families here supposed to get ahead when they are consistently ignored or cast aside altogether in favor of the Washington special interests and their bottom lines? Dole has voted with President Bush 92% of the time, and it’s clear he’s done nothing to help working families throughout his tenure, so we shouldn’t be surprised that Dole hasn’t either. But it’s time North Carolina has a voice that speaks for them, not against them, and someone who works to help them, not hinder them.”
In “Level” Hagen touches on issues that have impacted North Carolinians the hardest, including gas prices that have increased 250 percent under Dole’s tenure while Big Oil reaps record profits, and job displacement as a result of poor trade deals.
