Groups to Launch Ads That Link Abramoff to Powerful Members of Congress


News Advisory:

-- TV, Radio & Billboard Ads to Run in Rep. DeLay & Rep. Ney's Districts

On a conference call with reporters on Tuesday, the Public Campaign Action Fund and the Campaign for America's Future and will unveil a new set of television, radio and billboard ads that link Rep. Tom DeLay, R-Texas, and Rep. Bob Ney, R-Ohio, to one of the worst corruption scandals to ever hit Washington.

The advertisements, which begin airing on Wednesday, Jan. 11 in Texas and Ohio, will kickoff a joint yearlong effort by the two public interest groups to expose the most corrupt Congress in history. Everyday Americans are paying the price for this corruption as Congress does the bidding of well-heeled lobbyists instead of the business of the people.

3. GOOD! The more publicity the better
since the right wing media isn't going to give this scandal the press it deserves

6. how did David Dreier not receive money from Abramoff?
seems kinda fishy that Dreier, chair of an
important committee, didn't receive monies
from Abramoff. He did take a lot of overseas
trips with his chief of staff and life partner.
Were those paid for Abramoff?
