| The DCCC released its first TV ad in the race for MI-07, “Barrett’s Been Bought.” The ad hammers Barrett for his record of siding with data center developers by voting to give them massive tax breaks while they jack up energy bills.
The ad highlights how after an AI data center developer’s super PAC spent close to one million dollars supporting Barrett, he voted to give tens of billions in tax breaks to data center developers. Barrett even voted YES for a ban on Michigan governments from regulating data centers.
The ad – the first ad to run in MI-07 from the DCCC and Will Lawrence campaign – is airing in the Lansing and Detroit markets beginning today and is part of the committee’s coordinated spending in key battleground districts.
