David Malpass First Television Ad: Piling Debt on Debt

US Senate candidate David R. Malpass (R) today released the first television spot of the 2010 US Senate race for the seat now held by the unelected Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D). The 30-second spot, entitled Piling Debt on Debt, will be aired statewide. The ad, which was produced by Jamestown Associates, focuses on the federal governments out-of-control expansion and the impact it has on jobs and New Yorks families. David is running to bring an upheaval to Washingtons tax- and- spend culture and to promote economic growth and jobs. The text of the spot is as follows: There are nearly a million people out of work in New York State. And still, Washington spends more and piles debt on debt. These policies hurt New York. They hurt real families. Elections are about choices. Politicians want bigger, more expensive government. I want smaller, leaner government. These are solutions I’ve fought for my whole life. This November, I know I can bring change to Washington’s tax-and-spend culture. Im David Malpass. I approved this message. Mr. Malpass is a former Reagan Deputy Assistant Treasury Secretary and Deputy Assistant Secretary of State under President George HW Bush. He is a nationally-recognized expert on the federal budget and tax policy. While serving Presidents Reagan and Bush, Mr. Malpass worked on an array of pro-growth issues, including the 1986 tax cut, the Roth IRA and fast-track trade authority.
