Washington, DC - Today, Club for Growth Action announced a new TV and radio ad campaign in Mississippi’s Senate race. The ads criticize Mississippi Republican Senator Thad Cochran for supporting tax increases, bailouts, and debt ceiling increases during his 42 years in Washington. The Club for Growth PAC has endorsed State Senator Chris McDaniel for the seat. 

The TV ads will start running tomorrow on broadcast and cable throughout Mississippi. The radio ads will also run statewide.

“Senator Thad Cochran has his name plastered over all sorts of buildings in Mississippi, but in Washington, his name is all over debt limit increases, tax hikes, and bailouts,” said Club for Growth President Chris Chocola. “Thad Cochran couldn’t care less about the national debt – that’s why he’s voted to increase the debt limit 20 times and votes for every big-government item in the book, from voting to create the Department of Education in the 1970s under Jimmy Carter to supporting George H.W. Bush’s tax increase in the 1990s to funding ObamaCare today. After 42 years in Washington, Thad Cochran and his liberal voting record has led us to $17 trillion in debt with no end in sight.” 

“The choice is clear: Mississippi Republicans can have more taxpayer-funded buildings named after Thad Cochran. Or they can have a fiscal conservative who won’t mortgage the future of our children so he can have an aquaculture center named after himself. Voters will make the final judgment.” added Chocola.
