CLF Kicks Off VA-10 Campaign with “Higher Taxes” Ad Against LuAnn Bennett

TV and Digital Ads Part of CLF’s $1.5 Million Independent Expenditure in VA-10

WASHINGTON – The Congressional Leadership Fund (@CLFSuperPAC), the super PAC endorsed by House Republican leadership, today released the ad “Higher Taxes” against tax-and-spend Democrat LuAnn Bennett in Virginia’s 10th Congressional District race. The ad exposes LuAnn Bennett’s penchant for tax hikes on hard-working families.

“Northern Virginia families should hold on to their wallets, because LuAnn Bennett is ready to take your money,” said Ruth Guerra, spokeswoman for CLF. “LuAnn Bennett won’t say no to higher taxes that pick the pockets of families and businesses. Northern Virginia voters beware of tax-and-spend LuAnn Bennett.”

The TV ad will air on Washington DC broadcast and cable beginning Tuesday, October 11, as part of CLF’s $1.5 million independent expenditure campaign in VA-10. CLF is also running digital advertising in the race.  In 2014, CLF spent over $1 million in the VA-10 congressional race, supporting Barbara Comstock’s victory over John Foust.
