HCAN, AFSCME Launch $800,000 Ad Buy Targeting Nine Members Of Congress

The reform campaign Health Care for America Now, in partnership with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees is airing television ads targeting two senators and seven congressmen. Here's the version that's running in the district of Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI)

The ad will run for five days, targeting Suptak, as well as Reps. Bart Gordon (D-TN), Mike Ross (D-AR), John Barrow (D-GA), Baron Hill (D-IN), Zachary Space (D-Oh), and Charlie Melancon (D-LA). Starting Monday it will air in North Dakota, home of Sen. Kent Conrad. AFSCME is also sponsoring the ad in California, whose senior senator Dianne Feinstein has been lukewarm about the prospects of reform.

Stupak is threatening to derail health care reform efforts in the House unless his fellow Democrats agree to major changes to the legislation.
