DOWNERS GROVE, IL – Rep. Sean Casten released his second TV ad of the cycle today. The ad highlights Jeanne Ives’ support for Donald Trump and his destructive policies, and also features former chairman of the Illinois Republican Party Pat Brady.

This ad follows Rep. Casten’s first TV spot, “Molecular” and is part of the $2.4 Million ad buy previously announced by the campaign.

You can watch the new ad, “Grade”, here.

Campaign spokesman Jacob Vurpillat released the following statement:
“Jeanne Ives continues to stand with Donald Trump’s effort to worsen the climate crisis, his complete mismanagement of a global pandemic, and his attempts to strip health insurance away from hundreds of thousands of Illinois residents. Rep. Casten has spent the past two years fighting for the people of the 6th District, and he looks forward to continuing that in the next Congress as well.”
