Obama Campaign to Air “For Decades” Ad in Pennsylvania
New TV ad discusses need to take on corporate lobbyists, protect American jobs
PHILADELPHIA, PA—Today, Senator Barack Obama’s Pennsylvania campaign will begin airing a new television ad, entitled “For Decades”. In the thirty-second ad, Senator Obama reminds voters that politicians have been talking about protecting jobs for decades while allowing Washington lobbyists to block change. Barack Obama is the only candidate who doesn’t take money from federal lobbyists and special interest PACs. As President, Obama will take on the special interests to fix our trade laws, end tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas, and give them to companies that create jobs here in America.
SCRIPT – “For Decades”
Barack Obama: I moved to Chicago to help workers whose lives were torn apart when steel plants like this one left town.
For decades, politicians have talked about protecting jobs. But the power of Washington lobbyists stops anything from changing.
I’m Barack Obama. I’m the only candidate who doesn’t take their money – and they won’t run my White House.
We’ll fix our trade laws.
End tax breaks for companies who ship jobs overseas. And give them to those who create jobs here – in America.
That’s why I approve this message.
