Overview

Candidate CPP
Minneapolis – $313

Joe Teirab is pushing an agenda far outside the mainstream – that includes banning abortion. The case against Joe Teirab will continue to be refined over the next several weeks.

Summary

Voters need to see ads on Minneapolis broadcast, cable, satellite TV, and on streaming and digital platforms that: 

• Joe Teirab wants to ban abortion – taking away women’s reproductive rights and freedoms. He said that he is 100% pro-life.  He is a lifelong anti-abortion activist.  He has led anti-abortion groups and served on their board. Teirab said, “I am 100% pro-life,” and “I want to be part of the solutions and consensus to make [abortion] go away.” If Teirab had his way, he’d take away women’s rights and freedoms and turn that decision-making power over to the government. Teirab would let politicians ban abortion – with no exceptions for rape, incest, or to save a woman’s life. 

Voters receiving positive communication about Angie Craig should see ads on Minneapolis broadcast, cable, satellite TV, and on streaming and digital platforms that: 

• Angie Craig understands the struggle Minnesota families are facing to make ends meet – so she got to work.  Craig wrote the bill to end federal income taxes on Social Security, so that seniors keep more of the hard-earned benefits they depend on.  And Craig took on the big drug companies to lower the cost of prescription drugs. Angie wrote legislation to cap the cost of insulin at $35 a month — and then worked with both parties to pass a cap into law.
