The American Action Network (AAN) has launched a new wave of advertising targeting several congressional districts, including New Mexico’s 2nd, represented by far-left Democrat Rep. Gabe Vasquez.
As part of a broader $5 million investment in issue advocacy, the campaign urges lawmakers to support stronger immigration policies, including reinstating the “Remain in Mexico” policy.
AAN’s focus in Vasquez’s district comes as part of a larger push to influence policy on immigration and cost of living issues.
According to AAN President Dan Conston, the ads reflect concerns about “the toxic Biden-Harris agenda” and its effects on immigration and rising prices.
The group is advocating for measures like the Red Tape Reduction Act, which aims to lower costs on everyday items, energy, and healthcare, while also pushing for more stringent border control policies. The ads, set to run on television and digital platforms over the next two weeks, will highlight Vasquez’s stance on these key issues.
AAN has allocated $300,000 specifically for ads targeting Vasquez in New Mexico’s 2nd district, part of an overall summer ad campaign budget totaling $26.5 million. This marks a continued effort by AAN to pressure members of Congress on both immigration and economic reforms.
The campaign comes amid increasing voter concern about border security, with AAN citing a poll showing 62% of battleground voters support the “Remain in Mexico” policy. The ads are expected to play a significant role in shaping the political debate in Vasquez’s district ahead of upcoming legislative actions.
Vasquez faces a fierce reelection battle against Republican former Congresswoman Yvette Herrell, who just this week had an event in Las Cruces with U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson, who strongly endorsed her campaign.
Ouch, Gabe That must have hurt.
He and his comrades have got to go…including MLG…
Better yet, tell Gabe Vasquez to drop out of the race.
