NEW: El-Sayed Campaign Releases Ad at Gas Pumps Around the State
MICHIGAN – Today, U.S. Senate Candidate Abdul El-Sayed’s campaign launched ads at gas stations around the state, slamming the Trump Administration for its reckless war that’s put the burden on working people. Gas prices have risen sharply nationwide, over a dollar per gallon, following the U.S. military action in Iran launched by Trump last month. The ad highlights the pain Americans are feeling at the pump. The ad will run at gas stations in Detroit, Inkster, and Lansing, reaching thousands of voters as they’re commuting.
This message is part of Abdul’s larger campaign to show Michiganders that we can demand more from our representation in Washington. While Trump puts America last, Abdul puts Michigan first by fighting for the things we all need: the ability to afford our basic needs, like healthcare, clean water and air, quality schools, to fill up our tanks without breaking the bank, and a future for our kids. Abdul explains that life doesn’t have to be this hard:
“Know why gas costs more? Trump’s war with Iran,” says Abdul. “Our schools are crumbling. Our roads are full of potholes. Healthcare is unaffordable. Instead of fixing it, Trump is spending $200 billion of your tax dollars on a war with no justification. Now, every time you fill up, you’re paying for it. Life doesn’t have to be this hard. But it will be until we hold the powerful accountable. I’m Abdul El-Sayed — running for U.S. Senate to get money out of politics and back in your pocket.”
Abdul’s campaign is focused on affordability and the first ad of the year gets to the heart of this campaign: we can hold Washington accountable and we can all have nice things.
