AZ-SEN: Democratic super PAC targets McSally over coronavirus response

A Democratic super PAC in Arizona is targeting Sen. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.) over her comments about the coronavirus pandemic in a new ad set to air statewide on Fox News and CNN.

The 30-second ad, shared exclusively with The Hill on Friday, cuts in clips of McSally in early March claiming at the time that calling on people to stay home from work or to skip spring break trips is “too much of a panicked reaction.”

“Martha McSally doesn’t get it,” text at the end of the ad reads.

The Middle Class Fighting to Restore Arizona’s Unity and Decency super PAC’s ad will launch Saturday and run for one week.

“Martha McSally has consistently let the working people of Arizona down,” said Frank Hawk, vice president of the Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters, one of the group’s funding the super PAC.

“She showed once again she is unfit for office by downplaying the risk the deadly Coronavirus poses to Arizona and our nation,” Hawk added.
