AFP, MacIver begin new $700,000 TV buy promoting Walker's reforms
The Americans for Prosperity and MacIver Institute yesterday began a new $700,000 TV ad buy promoting the guv’s collective bargaining changes and budget reforms.
The buy starts with an ad dubbed “Within Means” that the two groups originally ran in November.
AFP-Wisconsin state director Luke Hilgemann said the group is shooting a new ad that it hoped to have on the air by the middle of next week. It will follow some of the same themes the groups have previously raised as part of the “It’s Working” campaign they began last fall. But it will focus more on property taxes.
“We are continuing in the same lines that we started with educating citizens about the effects the budget reforms have had and we are moving forward with that project at a time when some people have questions about the true impact these reforms have had,” he said.
Hilgemann said the new ad campaign will run through Feb. 20.
The ad now running does not mention Gov. Scott Walker or the looming recall election. It features a series of people the spot says are involved in small businesses
