DCCC Releases New TV Ad In CA-22: “High Life”

The DCCC released new TV ads in the race for CA-22, “High Life/Gran Vida,” highlighting in English and Spanish just how out of touch David Valadao is from the Central Valley.

David Valadao has spent his time in Congress saying one thing to Central Valley voters and then consistently voting against legislation to support his constituents. He voted against capping insulin costs, against efforts to bring down the costs of groceries and fuel, and against the legislation to help small businesses during the pandemic – but was more than happy to pocket relief money for his own business.

The ads – the first to run in CA-22 from the DCCC IE – are airing in Bakersfield and Fresno beginning today and are part of the committee’s previously announced investments in key battleground districts.
