News: The Democratic group Unrig Our Economy is launching an initial salvo in its $10 million ad buy, going after House Republicans for Medicaid cuts.
The first ad targets Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-Iowa), a vulnerable incumbent who sits on the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
“Our congresswoman, Mariannette Miller-Meeks, just voted for the largest cut in the history of Medicaid so congressional Republicans can give a bunch of new tax breaks to billionaires,” an Iowa constituent says in the radio ad. The spot is running on Iowa radio from Friday until June 9.
The $10 million ad buy will also go after GOP Reps. Don Bacon (Neb.), Juan Ciscomani (Ariz.), Tom Kean (N.J.), Mike Lawler (N.Y.) and Rob Bresnahan (Pa.).
Money game: House Minority Whip Katherine Clark hosted a dinner for the DCCC on Wednesday night that raised over $1.5 million from members.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene (Wash.) were special guests at the event, which took place at Chloe on Capitol Hill.
