This week FreedomWorks unveiled an ad campaign targeting Sens. Olympia Snowe (R-ME), Susan Collins (R-ME), George Voinovich (R-OH), and Mitch McConnell (R-KY) over how they will vote on the more than $1 trillion stimulus plan now before the U.S. Senate.  These print ads, scheduled to run in targeted newspapers in each senator's state, highlight the potentially devastating economic impact that the proposed stimulus plan threatens and urges them to oppose it.

An excerpt from the ad relays that this legislation:

Lawmakers in Kentucky are considering a plan to increase the state cigarette tax by $0.70 per pack.  That would make a pack of cigarettes in Kentucky cost more than $5.00 and would bring along with it a host of unintended consequences.

FreedomWorks’ ongoing effort to alert American taxpayers of the risky and unfair housing bailout bill now moving in the Senate expands today with a print and radio ad campaign running throughout Kentucky. The ads [LISTEN HERE] call upon Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to take the lead in stopping the $300 billion bailout that rewards reckless homeowners and irresponsible mortgage lenders.

As an excerpt from the radio ad explains:

This week the Senate is debating a host of energy proposals backed by radical environmentalists and big government liberals that could drive the U.S. into a recession and make our country increasingly dependent on foreign sources of oil.

Global warming hysteria is fueling their campaign of fear even though their proposed reforms will do nothing to address this perceived ‘crisis’.
