What They’re Saying: DSCC “Launching A Blitz Of Ads,” “Slamming Republicans For Ditching ‘The Toughest Border Bill In A Generation’”

A wave of new reports highlights the DSCC’s “new digital-video ad” “slamming” Republican Senate candidates “for ditching ‘the toughest border bill in a generation,’”

Here’s what they’re saying: 

• Punchbowl News: “The DSCC is running a new digital ad that claims Senate Republicans ‘won’t keep us safe’ because the GOP Conference killed the bipartisan Senate border security bill earlier this month. The ad, which will target voters in Florida and Texas on Meta platforms, features clips of newscasters bashing Republicans for sinking the compromise package. Of course, Sens. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) and Ted Cruz (R-Texas) are the top GOP targets for the DSCC this cycle. Both opposed the border deal. This is part of a wider Democratic strategy aiming at Republicans for walking away from the package. The Ohio Democratic Party recently hit leading GOP Senate candidate Bernie Moreno on the same issue.”
  
  
• MSNBC: “I want to show the ad [the DSCC] just put out…Senate Republicans won’t keep us safe is the bottom line message there.”

• Axios: “The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee launched a new ad Wednesday morning slamming Republicans for ditching ‘the toughest border bill in a generation.’”
  
  
• Associated Press: “Putting the strategy into motion, the campaign arm for Senate Democrats is launching a blitz of ads attacking Republicans for voting against the border enforcement bill — even taking the fight to Texas, where Sen. Ted Cruz is seeking another term.”
  
  
• The Wall Street Journal: “The campaign arm for Senate Democrats launched a new digital-video ad on Wednesday hitting Republicans voting against the border measure. ‘Senate Republicans won’t secure the border,’ the text in the ad says. ‘They won’t keep us safe.’”
  
  
• The New York Times: “On Wednesday, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee began a[n] …online advertising campaign in Texas and Florida, where two Republican incumbents are up for re-election, saying that Republicans are the ones who ‘won’t secure the border’ and won’t ‘crack down on fentanyl trafficking.’”
  
  
• NOTUS: “On Tuesday, the [DSCC] popped a digital ad on Meta-owned platforms targeting Republicans who helped kill the bipartisan Senate border bill crafted by their colleague Sen. James Lankford of Oklahoma.”
