U.S. Chamber Launches TV Ad Blitz in Illinois
Highlights Giannoulias’ ‘Record of Economic Failure’
WASHINGTON, D.C.—The U.S. Chamber of Commerce today launched the television ad “Economic Failure” throughout Illinois to highlight Alexi Giannoulias’ anti-business record.
“Illinois’ voters want a candidate with common sense policies that create jobs, not a pattern of highly questionable activity that has left a trail of economic problems,” said Bill Miller, national political director for the Chamber. “This ad will remind Illinois’ voters that a candidate’s record matters when it comes to job creation, especially at a time when more than 1 in 10 people in Illinois are looking for work.”

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is the world’s largest business federation representing the interests of more than 3 million businesses of all sizes, sectors, and regions, as well as state and local chambers and industry associations.
