Women Vote Announces Six-Figure Television Program in Texas’ 23rd Congressional District Race

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Women Vote, the independent expenditure arm of EMILYs List, announced a six-figure television program in the red-to-blue race in Texas’ 23rd Congressional District. The ads, ‘She Knows’ and ‘Simple,’ draw a stark contrast between Gina Ortiz Jones’ commitment to protecting affordable health care and Tony Gonzales’ lack thereof. The ads will run in equal rotation until Election Day.

“Gina Ortiz Jones knows how to fight and win tough battles, and she’ll continue to do so as the next representative of Texas’ 23rd Congressional District,” said Melissa Williams, vice president of independent expenditures at EMILYs List. “While Gina is a veteran running to continue fighting for freedom and equality, Tony Gonzales’ only plan is to serve as a rubber stamp for the Republican Party’s dangerous agenda, including by taking away health care from 23 million Americans. Texans know that Gonzales is wrong for San Antonio and West Texas, and it’s one of the countless reasons they’ll vote overwhelmingly to send Gina Ortiz Jones to Congress this November.”
