Sebring, FL- Today, Congressional candidate, Gayle Harrell (R- Stuart) released the first television advertisement in the race for Florida’s 16th Congressional District.
“Tim Mahoney has Nancy Pelosi and liberal Washington Special Interests telling his story, so we’re taking our case directly to the voters”, Harrell said, “Congressman Mahoney says he doesn’t like his job so we’re going to hand him his walking papers come November.”
Congressman Tim Mahoney voted for what would have been the largest tax increase in American history, supported a timetable for withdrawal from Iraq, earned a 100% rating from NARAL Pro-Choice America and attacked opponents of illegal immigration as ‘immoral’.
In comparison, as a State Representative, Gayle Harrell to pass Amendment 1 giving property tax relief to homeowners, voted to cut taxes by $20 billion dollars, authored key legislation to secure our seaports, received the Faith and Family Award from the Christian Coalition for her pro-life voting record, and led the fight to oppose giving welfare benefits to illegal immigrants.
The television spot, titled “Where I Stand” introduces Representative Harrell, her record, as well as her positions on the issues and can be viewed here. The ad begins by discussing Gayle’s support for the successful Amendment 1, which will cut property taxes, then continues with the importance of securing the border and solving illegal immigration, as well as her votes for abortion restrictions such as parental notification.
“Gayle Harrell is a proven conservative with a record that demonstrates she can and will cut taxes, secure our borders, and give needed relief to our economy,” said Harrell Campaign Chairman and Florida Senate President Ken Pruitt, “As voters get to know Gayle Harrell, they will know that her values are our values.”
