Actions speak louder than words, John, and my opponent is spending big money on ads full of empty words and broken promises.

 

Recently, Republican Senator Mike Crapo began running ads touting his support of veterans. But his record in the Senate tells a very different story.

 

Earlier this year, Crapo voted AGAINST the PACT Act which expanded service-connected disability benefits and vital, life-saving healthcare to veterans exposed to toxic burn pits in Iraq and Afghanistan.
A graphic featuring a headline and lede from the Idaho Capital Sun, which reads: “U.S. Senate in turnaround backs aid for veterans exposed to burn pits. The 11 votes against the bill all came from Republicans, including Mike Crapo of Idaho. Included is a photo of supporters of the bill staging a press conference in front of the U.S. Capitol building after the bill passed in August.

And just this last week, Crapo voted against the must-pass continuing resolution that averted a government shutdown and guarantees our troops continue to get paid.

 
A graphic featuring a tweet from Vote Vets posted on September 29, 2022, which reads: “The Senate just passed a bill to: Keep the government open, Ensure our troops get paid on time, Provide $12 billion in aid to Ukraine, Provide $2 billion in disaster relief. Here are the 25 Republicans who voted NO.” Included is a graphic featuring the names of 25 Republican Senators who voted against paying our troops. There is a red arrow pointing to Mike Crapo’s name on the list.

Talk is cheap, John. Mike Crapo is happy to use our troops as political props when it suits his interests. But when it comes time to deliver results, he’s AWOL.

 

The same can be said for working families all across Idaho. People are struggling, and our senator is playing political games.

 

I’m a single dad raising two boys I adopted out of foster care. I’m a longtime community activist and nonprofit leader. And I am openly gay.

 

I know who is hurting, who’s at risk, and who needs support in our community because I work with folks on the margins every day – and I’ve faced many of the same struggles in my own life.

 

It’s time we had a senator who is rooted in the community with a clear record of service – not blind political ambition.

 

Mike Crapo and I are set to debate in just two days’ time, and I look forward to challenging his rhetoric with his record.

 

I set an ambitious goal to raise another $20K before our debate, and we’re only $1,257 shy. Will you pitch in $50 now to boost our people-powered campaign ahead of this important debate?

 

Let’s win this!

David Roth is a single, gay dad running to flip a U.S. Senate seat in Idaho. His opponent is an extremist “pro-life” Republican who’s been in politics for 37 years. David stepped up to serve the state that has been his home most of his life, where he is now raising his two young sons, because every state is worth fighting for. There has never been an openly gay man elected to the U.S. Senate. Help us make history this year. Pitch in now to flip this seat and send David to D.C.
