Joe Garcia for Congress Releases First Television Ads in Miami-Dade & Monroe Counties: "What's Right" & "Moving Forward"

Press Release

Today, the Joe Garcia for Congress campaign released its first two television ads: "What's Right" and "Moving Forward." Both spots will begin running today.

"What's Right" features Rep. Garcia speaking about his family's story of standing up to the Castro regime, and how Rep. Garcia is applying those lessons in Congress to always do what's right for South Florida -- while Carlos Curbelo is rubber-stamping the Tea Party agenda of his partisan allies like Rick Scott, and would do the same in Washington.

In "Moving Forward" Rep. Garcia notes how the Keys thrive through their hard work and by creating opportunity. The spot highlights Garcia's work to cap high flood insurance rates and notes how Carlos Curbelo would remove limits on flood insurance which would cause rates to skyrocket.

Full transcripts of both ads can be found below:

"What's Right"

"My grandmother's courage to stand up to Castro and protect her family taught me to do what's right, no matter what. So when Washington politicians threatened to cut Medicare I worked with both parties and protected those benefits. It's disappointing Carlos Curbelo rubber stamps Rick Scott's Tea Party agenda. Curbelo supports ending the Medicare guarantee and backs Rick Scott's massive cuts to our schools. I'm Joe Garcia and I approve this message because I support South Florida, not political agendas."

"Moving Forward"

"As a kid, I cut grass in neighborhoods just like this to save money to go to college. Opportunity and hard work: that is how the Keys thrive. So when high flood insurance costs hurt our homeowners I passed a law capping those rates to help job growth. Carlos Curbelo backs Rick Scott's Tea Party policies, hurting our progress. Curbelo would remove the limits on flood insurance rates, letting costs skyrocket. I'm Joe Garcia and I approved this message to keep the Keys moving forward."
