RALEIGH, NC – As first reported by Politico, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) today announced a $6.3 million ad buy in six U.S. Senate battleground states, including North Carolina. The ads focus on cost-of-living policies, including how Roy Cooper’s energy policies as governor would have cost the average North Carolina family $434 more in electricity costs a year. In contrast, Michael Whatley will support policies that unleash American energy and in turn lower the cost of living.
AFP Action senior advisor for North Carolina Tyler Voigt released the following statement:
“Roy Cooper will put his party’s progressive agenda over commonsense solutions to address cost-of-living issues that are hurting North Carolina families. As governor, he vetoed tax cuts that put more money back in the pockets of North Carolinians. Roy Cooper would be more of the status quo in Washington, putting his party’s agenda first.
“Michael Whatley is tired of Washington’s gridlock and career politicians failing the people who elected them. Whatley has a plan to lower taxes, cut spending, and unleash American energy. Whatley will put North Carolina families first.”
