ALEXANDRIA, Va. – The 60 Plus Association, nationally recognized as the conservative alternative to the liberal AARP, today launched a new ad in Arizona’s 2nd Congressional District.  The spot, which is backed by a $200,000 ad buy, explains the Obama-Barber agenda has had a tremendous impact on the middle class, leaving 23 million without full-time employment and 46 million on food stamps as our national debt soars past $16 trillion.

“American families are suffering and still Ron Barber believes President Obama’s policies will ‘benefit the middle class,'” said Jim Martin, Chairman and Founder of 60 Plus.  “Rather than putting Arizona families back to work, the Obama-Barber agenda has pushed the national debt to more than $16 trillion and left 23 million Americans without full-time work.  Their plan for America doesn’t work for Arizona’s seniors or middle class.”
