New digital ads from the American Action Network (AAN) will drop in a pair of competitive South Florida congressional districts to tout the benefits of the Republican tax reform bill passed in December.
The spots, announced Tuesday, will run in Florida’s 18th and 26th Congressional Districts, represented by Republican Reps. Brian Mast and Carlos Curbelo, respectively.
Democrats are targeting both seats as possible pickups this year.
The Cook Political Report lists Mast’s Palm Beach County CD 18 seat as “likely Republican” at this point, while Curbelo’s CD 26 seat — running from Miami to Key West — is considered a “toss-up.”
The ads are part of the AAN’s $2.5 million digital ad campaign to promote the merits of tax reform following the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act shortly before Christmas. They are one of a handful of conservative organizations touting the benefits of the tax cut nationally.
“All across the country, working families are seeing real results, from paycheck bonuses to an average tax cut of $2,000 thanks to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act,” said Corry Bliss, AAN executive director. “AAN will continue to promote the benefits of pro-growth tax reform for the middle class because families deserve to know how these cuts will provide them with much-needed peace of mind.”
The digital ads are being run in 36 competitive districts nationally.
