WATCH: DCCC’s New Digital Ad Campaign “They’re Coming For Us” Launches in Ohio

DCCC targets Ohio voters in new ad campaign to engage Black voters and highlight GOP attacks on Black women’s freedoms

This week, the DCCC launched a six-figure digital advertising campaign to reach Black voters and demonstrate that Democrats are fighting to protect Black women’s reproductive freedom. The ads are airing in key battleground districts, including in Ohio’s competitive 1st and 13th Congressional Districts.

The ad, titled “They’re Coming For Us,” will engage voters of color on the issue of women’s freedom and protecting access to abortion as people in Ohio and across the country feel the devastating impacts of Republicans’ dangerous plot to ban abortion nationwide.

Rep. Steve Chabot in OH-01 has long been on the forefront of efforts to strip women of their reproductive freedoms, and Madison Gesiotto Gilbert in OH-13 is an anti-choice extremist who has spewed racist misinformation and celebrated the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

“Republicans have shown us who they are over and over again and they are not for us. First they attacked our right to vote, now they want to implement a nationwide abortion ban that strips Black women, especially, of our bodily freedom,” said Christale Spain, DCCC Senior Advisor for Black Engagement. “We are reminding Black voters that Democrats are going to fight tooth and nail to protect our freedom.”
