Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Monday released two ads summing up her qualifications to be President and urging Democrats in early voting states to “stop the Republicans from ripping all our progress away.”

The similar 60-second ads, set to air in Iowa and New Hampshire, give a short version of Clinton’s biography. The ads highlight her role in the State Children’s Health Insurance Program as first lady and show her standing near Ground Zero as a senator from New York and sitting opposite Russian President Vladimir Putin as secretary of state.

The ads close with a summary of Clinton’s biggest campaign promises, including taking on the gun lobby and keeping Planned Parenthood open. The ads also show images of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Donald Trump while urging Democrats to “stop the Republicans from ripping all our progress away.”

The ads will air in their respective states with a call to action to caucus on Feb. 1 or vote in a primary on Feb. 9. The size and length of the ad buy were unclear.

Here’s the Iowa version of the ad:
