Americans for Prosperity Opposes So-Called Stimulus, Launches Radio Ad Blitz Today in North Carolina

Ad urges citizens to tell Senator Hagen to vote ?no? to pork filled stimulus package

RALEIGH ?Americans for Prosperity-North Carolina (AFP-NC) today launched a radio ad blitz urging citizens to contact Senator Kay Hagen to vote ?no? on the trillion dollar stimulus scheme that would drastically increase the size of government.

Airing in Wilmington, Greensboro, and Raleigh, the ad states that Washington politicians are up to their old games, using the economic crisis to fund pet projects proposed in the wrongfully titled ?stimulus? package.
?
?We can?t spend our way to prosperity,? said Dallas Woodhouse, AFP North Carolina Director. ?We are encouraging our members, and anyone who is concerned with the out-of-control spending of taxpayer money, to contact Senator Hagan and urge her to find free market solutions to stimulate the economy.?

The radio ad also drives listeners to www.NoStimulus.com, an AFP-sponsored website and online petition that serve as the foundation of an aggressive grassroots campaign against the trillion dollar ?stimulus? scheme. Over 40,000 signatures have already been collected since the petition?s launch two weeks ago.

By visiting the website, online activists can learn the facts on the spending proposal, sign the ?No Stimulus? petition, contact their legislators, and write to local media.

?This so-called stimulus is loaded up with a wide-ranging agenda that has nothing to do with boosting the economy,? said AFP President Tim Phillips. ?A huge amount of this money will be used to grease the wheels of local special-interest politics– projects that were unaffordable during the best economic times and are even less affordable now.?
