ERIE, PENN.The 60 Plus Association, nationally recognized as the conservative alternative to the liberal AARP, tomorrow will launch a new ad regarding Rep. Kathy Dahlkemper’s record in the U.S. House of Representatives.

“Many seniors don’t understand why Rep. Dahlkemper would vote for the health reform bill that hurt the quality of care for a number of Pennsylvania seniors,” said Jim Martin, Chairman of the 60 Plus Association.  “The Greatest Generation paid the largest price for the so-called health reform legislation.  Our taxes were raised, our access was negatively affected, and our health care providers may even need to change.  Seniors may not know why Rep. Dahlkemper went against the wishes of constituents, but many voters will know exactly why they are voting against her this November.”

60 Plus began airing local ads on September 9.  This is the second in a series of ads the organization has released in regards to Dahlkemper’s record.  A full transcript of the television ad can be found below or a video of the ad can be found by clicking here .

– TRANSCRIPT –

ANNOUNCER:

We warned Kathy Dahlkemper not to do it… Not to vote for a big-government health care bill… One that costs a trillion dollars… Raises taxes… And cuts $500 billion from Medicare… But Kathy Dahlkemper sided with Nancy Pelosi – and did it anyway. We may never know why Dahlkemper supported Pelosi over our seniors… But this November, when you vote against Kathy Dahlkemper – she’ll know exactly the reason why.
