Today, in the race for Illinois’ Sixth Congressional District, the DCCC announced a new television ad hitting Rep. Peter Roskam for falling in line with President Trump and endlessly attacking affordable health care for families, seniors, and women in his district. The ad will begin airing immediately in the district.

WATCH NEW DCCC AD “Fallen” HERE
The ad, “Fallen,” highlights Roskam’s record of voting 94% of the time with President Trump, and his repeated votes to weaken protections for people with pre-existing conditions, make older Americans and women pay more for their health care, and leave 30,000 of his own constituents without health coverage.
“Rep. Peter Roskam is deeply out of step with his constituents, and they are the ones paying for it. Rather than put his district first, Roskam has fallen in line with President Trump and voted repeatedly to weaken protections for pre-existing conditions, raise health care costs, and leave 30,000 of his constituents without health care coverage.” – DCCC Spokesperson Jacob Peters
Script:
Career Politician Peter Roskam’s supposed to work for us. Instead he’s been a rubber stamp for Donald Trump. Roskam voted repeatedly to gut health care…weaken protections for people with pre-existing conditions…and to allow insurance companies to charge older Americans and women more for their care. Roskam even voted to kick 30,000 people in his district off their health insurance. Peter Roskam’s fallen in line with Donald Trump…and we’ve…fallen behind.
