RELEASE: Davis releases new ad, "Common Sense"

Press Release

Paul Davis, candidate for Congress in Kansas' second district, has released its first television ad of the 2018 election cycle.

Davis, a lifelong Kansan and son of two school teachers, has a track record of working across the aisle to get things done. The 30-second spot highlights Davis' proven ability to achieve bipartisan results.

"Kansans are commonsense people -- we want results," Davis said. "I launched this campaign one year ago today. From the beginning, I've rejected the typical, partisan talking points we hear from outside super PACs and DC special interests. Instead, we've focused on Kansans, offering commonsense ideas to end DC's culture of corruption, lower the skyrocketing cost of healthcare, and to reform taxes for working Kansas families who need help the most."

Former Kansas Republican Insurance Commissioner Sandy Praeger offered her support for Davis' unifying message. Praeger also introduced Davis at his campaign announcement last August.

"After serving as both a local and statewide Republican elected official, I am proud to support Paul for Congress," said Praeger. "I've known him for many years -- he has proven his integrity and ability to break through partisan gridlock time and again. We can't restore Kansas values in Washington unless we send a voice there who understands our values and has proven that he will stay true to them no matter what. Paul is a leader we can trust."

As a leader in the Kansas House, Davis fought former Gov. Sam Brownback's attacks on Medicare, worked successfully to expand health insurance for Kansas children, protected benefits for our veterans, helped build the coalition that passed the state's largest ever statewide transportation plan, and voted over 150 times to cut taxes for Kansans.

The ad underscores Davis' independent approach to leadership, and why he announced one year ago today that he will not support Nancy Pelosi for Speaker or Leader if he is elected, despite the false claims of outside super PACs.

"Washington is broken, and when something is broken it needs new leadership," said Davis. "Out-of-state special interests coming in to lie about my record is further proof that we need leaders willing to take a stand. I won't stand for it and neither should Kansans."

The ad begins airing on Topeka and Joplin cable and broadcast networks on Wednesday. It will also run across digital platforms. For more information, please visit www.davisforkansas.com or follow the campaign on social media at facebook.com/PaulDavisKS or@PaulDavisKS.
