Liberal groups launch emotional ad in Wisconsin aimed at recalling GOP lawmakers

Source: Raw Story

WASHINGTON – In the wake of a devastating legislative defeat in Wisconsin, liberal groups have unleashed a new ad campaign against state Republican lawmakers who voted to strip the collective bargaining rights of public employee unions.

The one-minute spot was created by the Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC) and Democracy For America (DFA). Featuring emotional testimonials from Wisconsin teachers and other state employees, it begins running Tuesday in Green Bay and Milwaukee, targeting six Republican senators eligible for recall.

"As a Republican my entire life I am appalled at what Scott Walker and the Republicans did," says a corrections officer in the ad. "This hurts my family. It's about my kids in school."

"Republicans have declared war on the middle class and with this recall campaign we are fighting back and we are going to win," says a woman at the end.
