They're behind the Swift Boat ads

It’s starting. A Super PAC called New Prosperity Foundation has launched the first round of attack ads against Tammy, paid for with unlimited, undisclosed funds that threaten our democracy. This is one of the largest Super PAC expenditures to date against a Democrat in Illinois.

This race is officially a top target for right-wing Super PAC spending. Help us fight back against these unlimited, undisclosed funds by contributing $10 today: https://services.myngp.com/ngponlineservices/contribution.aspx?X=xFhpoVcbOj5okNvTs1E7RIpxwY4as9mOMtpskEjgtS%2b361fPCsEtCKQTmrCtjxSl

Here’s the worst part: one of New Prosperity Foundation’s largest donors, Sam Fox, was also a major donor to the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, the group behind the infamous ads attacking John Kerry’s military service in 2004.

We already know Joe Walsh will stop at nothing to attack Tammy. Now we know he has the wealthy allies he needs to promote whatever malicious attack he wants. We can’t let him get away with it.

Thank you,

P.S. We know that grassroots support is just as powerful as Super PAC ads - and it’s the right way to fund a campaign. Contribute $10 today to stand up to Walsh and his Super PAC allies.
