Harris campaign ads target anti-Asian hate and protecting Obamacare

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign released two ads directed at Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander voters this week. The campaign ads focus on the rise in anti-Asian hate and threats to repeal the Affordable Care Act.

According to the Harris-Walz campaign, the ads will appear digitally, on radio, and on television throughout the battleground states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The campaign is part of a broader three week $90 million media blitz currently underway for the month of August. 

“These new ads remind Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander voters that the choice in this election is clear for our communities,” said Harris-Walz AANHPI Spokesperson Andrew Peng in a statement.

 “Vice President Harris is working to lower the costs of healthcare—having already capped insulin at $35 per month for over 2 million AANHPI seniors—while Trump promises to tear critical protections away. And while the Vice President continues to fight relentlessly to keep our families safe, Donald Trump actively encourages anti-Asian hate and remains an active danger to our families and freedoms, ” he continued.
