Republican congressional candidate Jeff Hurd hits the road to talk health care in a TV ad his campaign released Wednesday in Colorado’s sprawling 3rd Congressional District.
“I remember when mom got really sick with cancer, we had to travel out of state for help,” says Hurd as he navigates a wide-open highway from behind the wheel of a pickup truck in the 30-second spot. “Today, some Coloradans have to travel for hours for even the most basic care. We can do better.”
Adds Hurd: “I’ll make expanding health care access for rural Colorado a top priority. Protect Social Security and Medicare. I’ll always remember who I’m fighting for.”
