  • DSCC Launches New Ad Campaign Sounding the Alarm on the Republican Plan to Cut Medicaid

    Today, the DSCC launched a new digital ad campaign sounding the alarm on the toxic Republican plan that pushes massive cuts to Medicaid and other critical programs – leaving millions of Americans uninsured in order to pay for a tax giveaway for billionaires.

    A national 60-second digital ad, “Devastating,” will reach Americans who are likely to be impacted by cuts to Medicaid and other critical programs. It will run on Meta platforms and CTV channels including Hulu, Roku, Peacock, Sling and Discovery networks.

    Watch “Devastating” here: 

    The DSCC is also launching a set of display ads to run on websites to reach voters seeking information about health care and voters on non-traditional websites. 

    From DSCC spokesperson Maeve Coyle: “Senate Republicans are doing everything in their power to rip away health care and spike costs for hardworking families, all to give billionaires a massive tax handout. Under the leadership of Senate Republicans, millions of people are at risk of losing their health insurance – and voters will hold them accountable for it at the ballot box in 2026.”
