The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) is marking 100 days until the midterm elections with a new digital ad shared first with CQ Roll Call. The ad will run on Meta platforms Facebook and Instagram starting Sunday in 25 Republican-held House districts that Democrats are targeting. The spot focuses on rising grocery bills and gas prices, urging viewers to 'remember in November.' DCCC spokesperson Nebeyatt Betre stated that House Republicans have 'bled Americans’ wallets dry' with their cost-raising agenda. House Republicans face strong headwinds amid low approval ratings for President Donald Trump, concerns about the cost of living, and the Iran war. An Emerson College poll released Thursday found Democrats with an 11-point lead over Republicans on the generic congressional ballot. The affordability message proved reliable for Democrats in key races last year, and the party is expected to continue hammering Republicans on high prices.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) is marking 100 days until the midterm elections with a new digital ad, shared first with CQ Roll Call.
The ad will run on Meta platforms Facebook and Instagram starting Sunday in 25 Republican-held House districts that Democrats are targeting this fall. The spot focuses on rising grocery bills and gas prices, urging viewers to “remember in November.”
“From groceries to gas to health care, House Republicans have bled Americans’ wallets dry with their cost-raising agenda,” DCCC spokesperson Nebeyatt Betre said in a statement. “Voters are exhausted by all the bad news vulnerable House Republicans have created, and the DCCC is working to make sure voters know they can hold Republicans accountable on Election Day.”
House Republicans, who are defending a razor-thin majority, face strong headwinds less than four months before the midterms amid low job approval ratings for President Donald Trump and concerns about the cost of living and the Iran war. An Emerson College poll released Thursday found Democrats with an 11-point lead over Republicans on the generic congressional ballot, which asks voters which party’s candidate they plan to support for Congress.
A focus on affordability proved a reliable message for Democrats in several key races last year, and the party is expected to hammer Republicans on high prices in the lead-up to this year’s midterms.
The new DCCC ad will run in the following districts:
