The pro-Obamacare group Save My Care launched a digital ad campaign that targets key House and Senate Republicans who voted in favor of repealing the healthcare law.
The ads target three senators and seven House members in an attempt to tie them to votes for unpopular repeal efforts. The House passed a partial repeal and replace bill back in May and the Senate failed to pass a “skinny” repeal bill late last month.
“Poll after poll has shown abysmal support for repeal among the American people, with the latest Kaiser tracking poll showing seven in ten Americans (71 percent) want Republicans in Congress to work with Democrats to make improvements to the ACA, not repeal the law,” the group said.
Of the three Republican senators targeted, two are up for re-election in 2018: Jeff Flake of Arizona and Dean Heller of Nevada. Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va., is also targeted.
The House members targeted are Reps. Dave Brat of Virginia, John Faso of New York, Darrell Issa of California, Tom MacArthur of New Jersey, Pete Sessions of Texas, and David Valadao in California.
Issa narrowly won re-election in 2016. MacArthur revived the House bill by reaching a compromise with the conservative House Freedom Caucus to gain their support.
Faso is in a battleground district where he won re-election by roughly 8 percentage points.
