Cheap Talk - July 17, 2014
July 17, 2014
ANNOUNCER: Here in Michigan, Congressman Gary Peters is having a fundraiser with his friend Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, the self-proclaimed intellectual founder of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Congressman Gary Peters talks about getting tough on Wall Street, but Wall Street isn’t worried. Gary Peters spent 20 years as a Wall Street insider himself, and Peters took more than two million from Wall Street bankers and the financial industry—the industry Peters’ Congressional committee is supposed to monitor—while working on new financial regulation that helped make “too big to fail” Wall […]

Stop Fighting, Start Listening - June 17, 2014
June 17, 2014
LAND: As a mom, I know how to break up a fight. That's a lesson I'll teach to Washington, DC, and Congress. They fight too much, spend too much, work too little—and we're getting stuck with the bill with nothing to show for it. As Michigan Secretary of State, I brought people together. We cut waste and save taxpayers millions of dollars. I’m Terri Lynn Land and I approve this message, because it’s time to start working together and put Michigan first.

Lost in Battle - May 8, 2014
May 8, 2014
LYNE DICKEY: Change can still happen here. After she met with our military in the Middle East, Alison Lundergan Grimes came home and brought Democrats and Republicans together, to pass a law ensuring every military vote will be counted. I almost lost my son in Iraq, but what upset him most was his ballot being lost in battle. Because of Alison, that will never happen again. Washington should work this way. GRIMES: I'm Alison Lundergan Grimes and I’m honored to approve this message.

KY Deserves a Pro-Jobs Senator- April 30, 2014
April 30, 2014
NEWS CLIPS: Now to Kentucky, where more people in the Bluegrass State are without jobs. Unemployment went up in 2013 for almost half of Kentucky’s counties. Many Americans are still struggling to find work, including many of our nation's veterans. For the entire year, Kentucky's unemployment was 8.3 percent that is much higher than the national average. GRIMES: As your next United States Senator, I will fight each and every day for policies—good policies that help to create jobs, train our workers and prepare them for the jobs of tomorrow.

Fire - Oct. 28, 2013
October 28, 2013
ANNOUNCER: He calls himself a proud guardian of gridlock. He's blocked the Senate over 400 times then voted to shut down the government, hurting Kentucky’s economy. Mitch McConnell can’t light the house on fire, then claim credit for putting it out—especially while it's still burning.

The working class isn't making it - July 22, 2014
July 22, 2014
BELLOWS: The working class now isn't making it. We need to invest in working people and small business owners. We need to raise the minimum wage, we need increase Social Security benefits. Republicans in Washington don't have any understanding of what the middle class is. If you work hard, you should make enough money to provide for your family. We can have a Maine where the economy is thriving, where Maine families get ahead, but we need to make work pay again. I'm Shenna Bellows and I approve this message.

GRIMES: I'm Alison Lundergan Grimes and this is Don Disney from Cloverlick, Kentucky, and he has a question for Senator McConnell. DISNEY: Senator, I am a retired coal miner. I want to know how you could have voted to raise my Medicare costs by $6,000. How are my wife and I supposed to afford that? GRIMES: I don't think he's gonna answer that. I approve this message, because I’ll work to strengthen Medicare, not bankrupt seniors like Don.

A Moment - May 21, 2014
May 21, 2014
GRIMES: Hi, I'm Alison Lundergan Grimes, and I want to take a moment to talk with you about why I'm running for Senate. This is a frustrating time our country. The economy is still struggling, people are working harder for less, and here in Kentucky we feel it more than most. And it seems no matter how many elections we have, nothing gets better in Washington—it only gets worse. A lot of that is because the people at the top in both political parties. If we keep sending them back, […]
