That didn’t take long.
Moments after House Republicans (and three Democrats) voted to repeal President Obama’s health care law, TV ads went live in the districts of three GOP freshmen in contested districts to knock them for that vote.
The ads target Reps. Jim Renacci (R-OH), who ousted John Boccieri in November, Jon Runyan (R-NJ) who knocked off John Adler, and Tim Walberg (R-MI), who defeated Mark Schauer.
The ads are sponsored by the Public Campaign Action Fund, and will run in the districts of these three Republicans. “These three members of Congress sided with the insurance companies and their donors, and against their constituents yesterday,” said David Donnelly, national campaigns director for Public Campaign Action Fund, in a statement. “They were elected to bring change to Washington, but yesterday’s vote shows that wealthy special interests like the insurance companies still have all the power in Washington, D.C.”
It’s just another sign that Democrats and their allies have fundamentally changed their strategy vis-a-vis the health care law since the election.
