Digital ad targets Beth Van Duyne for helping inspire Capitol attack

The campaign arm of the 38-member Congressional Hispanic Caucus, BOLD PAC, announced this week the release of a political ad against Rep. Beth Van Duyne of Irving.

The 30-second digital ad titled “Spreading Lies,” goes after Van Duyne for her vote against certifying the 2020 Electoral College results in Arizona, hours after the Capitol attack in January.

“When an extremist mob attacked the Capitol, Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne was forced to hide,” the ad states. “But hours later, with blood still on the floors of the Capitol, she voted with Trump and helped spread the same lies that left a police officer dead and many others injured. They deserve better than Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne.”

Similar English-Spanish ads are being released against Reps. Carlos Gimenez (FL-26), Mike Garcia (CA-25) and Yvette Herrell (NM-02).
