AAN Adds $665,000 to Immigration Ad Campaign in PA-08

Today, American Action Network (AAN) added $675,000 to the ad campaign in PA-08 as part of an extensive issue advocacy campaign urging liberals in Congress to support commonsense immigration measures to secure our border. PA-08 is represented by Congressman Matt Cartwright. The campaign urges Cartwright to support reinstating the popular Remain in Mexico policy, which was revoked in February 2021 by the Biden-Harris Administration. Since then, the U.S. has seen record levels of illegal immigration with ten million crossings at our southern border.

The added $675,000 brings the total campaign to $1.5 million in PA-08 for the summer. The additional ad campaign will run over the coming weeks on television and digital platforms, with a heavy rotation during the Summer Olympics programming.

"Illegal immigration went from a problem to a full-blown crisis under the Biden-Harris Administration, and liberals in Congress, like Congressman Matt Cartwright, have only enabled the open-border policies that have led to this unmitigated disaster," said AAN President Dan Conston. "If Rep. Cartwright is serious about securing the border, he will stop opposing and begin supporting commonsense legislation and give Pennsylvanians the peace of mind they deserve."

Background: American Action Network has long been an advocate for commonsense border security legislation. AAN immigration research from February found that 62% of battleground voters support forcing the Biden Administration to reinstate the Remain in Mexico policy, as opposed to 28% who oppose. The AAN survey also shows that over 85% of Americans agree that there is a crisis at our southern border and almost 90% believe the U.S. Government needs to act on border security.
