WASHINGTON
- September 17 - American Family Voices will launch a television
advertisement asking the government to take care of America's troops and
families instead of taking care of Halliburton.
The ad, which will begin running tomorrow in Washington, D.C., New
Hampshire, Iowa, Missouri, and Wisconsin notes the sweetheart deals
Halliburton is receiving from the U.S. government while budgets for
education, healthcare and even veteran's benefits are being slashed across
the country. It is the first ad in a multimillion dollar ad campaign
planned for the fall.
Mike Lux, President of American Family Voices said, "It is unforgivable that
the government is more focused on making no bid, sweetheart deals with big
businesses such as Halliburton that are cronies of this administration than
they are on funding education and health care or providing benefits to our
troops."
American Family Voices (AFV) is a 501(c)4 non-profit, issue advocacy
organization created to focus attention on the economic and family issues
most important to the quality of middle class working families' lives.
