A new ad against Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker from is airing from a liberal 527 group, the Greater Wisconsin Political Fund.

As CNN reports, the group was aided by a financial infusion of $500,000 from the Democratic Governors Association.

“Most states gained jobs last year. But under Governor Walker, Wisconsin lost more jobs than any other state — dead last,” the announcer says. “Walker raised taxes on working families, slashed funding to train workers, and gave the big corporations billions in tax breaks. The corporations took the money, but didn’t create the jobs. We’re Wisconsin. If we’re dead last in the country, something is wrong. Scott Walker’s policies aren’t working.”
