On the second anniversary of the mass shooting at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas, the Biden campaign released a new digital ad that hammers former President Donald Trump on gun control.
"We honor those we lost in Uvalde," the ad says in text that appears over a black screen. As "Ave Maria" plays, the text continues, and an altar memorializing the 19 children and two teachers in the 2022 massacre appears and then transitions to photos of President Biden and first lady Jill Biden visiting Uvalde soon afterward.
"Joe Biden expanded background checks, and is fighting to ban assault weapons," the text reads. Over a video of a mouth speaking, the words, "Donald Trump did nothing to keep us safe" appear. The ad concludes with a final image of the Bidens at a Uvalde memorial and the words, "I'll never forget, I'll never stop fighting."
The 30-second ad is part of the campaign's seven-figure media ad buy for May targeting Latino voters. It will run in the battleground states of Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Nevada and will also include subtitles in spanish.
