New Spanish-Language Radio Ad In FL-27: Donna Shalala Should Be Ashamed
Shalala’s ally called for Castro’s death to be mourned, pressured President Obama to oppose sanctions on the Maduro regime in Venezuela
WASHINGTON – Congressional Leadership Fund (@CLFSuperPAC), the super PAC endorsed by House Republican leadership, today released a new radio ad, “Castro,” in Florida’s 27th Congressional District. The Spanish-language ad details Donna Shalala’s eagerness to campaign with political ally Barbara Lee who said Fidel Castro’s death should be mourned and lobbied President Obama to oppose sanctions on the Maduro regime in Venezuela. The radio ad will run in the Miami media market.
“As her underperforming campaign continues to struggle, it’s become crystal clear that Donna Shalala just doesn’t understand the Miami community and the 27th district,” said Courtney Alexander, CLF Communications Director. “This week, Shalala even associated with a Congresswoman who praised Fidel Castro and defended the ruthless regime in Venezuela. This is a slap in the face to the exiles in Miami – south Florida voters deserve better than Donna Shalala.”
