NEW STEFANIK RADIO AD HIGHLIGHTS BIPARTISAN RECORD SUPPORTING MILITARY SERVICE MEMBERS

– “NBC News said, Stefanik is not only fighting for the troops based in her district, but has the clout to bring the president to town” –

Glens Falls: The Stefanik campaign today launched a new radio ad highlighting Congresswoman Elise Stefanik’s strong, bipartisan record in support of our military service men and women serving at Ft. Drum and around the world.

The new radio ad cites Stefanik’s leadership in passing and enacting the FY’19 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which includes the largest pay increase for our troops in nine years, makes it easier for veterans to receive health care and related benefits, and other key provisions. The ad also highlights Stefanik’s record of easing relocation for military families, supporting family members caring for seriously wounded veterans, and leading the effort to bring the president to Fort Drum to sign this year’s NDAA into law.

The new radio ad, which complements the campaign’s latest television ad launched last week, airs district-wide beginning today.
