PHOENIX, Ariz. – Today, McSally for Senate launched another campaign TV ad, “Never Trust a Communist”. The ad highlights Senator McSally’s work to hold the communist Chinese government accountable for lying to the world and covering up critical information about the Coronavirus. Senator McSally is also working on bringing pharmaceutical and manufacturing back to America, not only to boost the U.S. economy but to decrease reliability on China.

McSally has introduced legislation to allow U.S. citizens to file lawsuits against the Chinese Communist Party over losses suffered during the Coronavirus pandemic.

“I learned in the military to never trust a Communist. All of America is learning that the Communist Chinese government lied and continues to coverup about the coronavirus, resulting in over 80,000 American deaths and counting” said Senator Martha McSally. “China destroyed samples, silenced doctors, kicked out journalists, blamed the US Army, and are still executing a propaganda campaign, costing lives and massive economic calamity. America will come back from this stronger than ever, but the Chinese government must be held accountable, and we must never again rely on them for critical supply chain needs.”

“Arizonans want elected officials to stand up to China’s government and say no more; Senator McSally is doing just that. Her opponent, on the other hand, has a startling history of doing business with the Communists in China,” said Dylan Lefler, McSally for Senate Campaign Manager.  “He co-founded WorldView, a space exploration company that received investment from a Chinese company labeled by the United Nations as ‘an enabler of Chinese government oppression.’ WorldView was supposed to create 400 jobs but instead failed to launch a Kentucky Fried Chicken sandwich into space and employs fewer than 100.”

Lefler continued, “There is only one candidate in this race who can be trusted to fight China for the well-being and jobs of Americans, Senator Martha McSally.”

PHOENIX, Ariz. – Today, McSally for Senate launched a new digital ad, “Stronger Than Ever.” The digital ad, a companion to last week’s television ad titled “Get Through This,” highlights Senator McSally’s personal efforts to help Arizonans during the coronavirus pandemic by donating her April paycheck to charities and individuals in need, giving blood, volunteering at food banks, and raising money for The Salvation Army of Arizona. McSally recorded the message for the ad on her phone while at home practicing social distancing.

At the start of this devastating pandemic, Senator Martha McSally shifted her campaign to focus on providing relief for Arizona. Her campaign ceased normal advertising for more than a month and suspended all door to door canvassing to instead deliver essential items to the elderly and vulnerable in communities across Arizona.

She introduced legislation to put Americans first by withholding pay from all U.S. Senators until they passed a relief package,  helped secure additional ventilators for Arizona hospitals, and worked to get immediate cash relief to individuals, hospitals, state/local governments, and small businesses. She also fought to secure $8 billion for Native American tribes like the Navajo Nation in Arizona to combat costs associated with fighting coronavirus.

On April 1^st, Senator McSally announced she was suspending all campaign fundraising to instead raise as much money as possible for The Salvation Army of Arizona. For 15 Days, she focused on volunteering and raising money, bringing in over $212,000 to directly support Arizonans struggling with food insecurity, rent and utility payments.

“There is no doubt we are facing one of the greatest challenges of our lifetime. Coronavirus has affected all of us personally and the pain is real,” said Senator McSally. “One thing is certain though – we will get through this together. I’m committed to making sure Arizona has support to win this fight by getting critical funds to small businesses, workers, families and hospitals and protection for our frontline health care heroes.  I’m also doing what I can personally, like donating my paycheck, raising money for charity, and giving blood. I know times are tough, but we will prevail by working and helping together.”

“As I saw and heard about the tough situations Arizonans are facing because of COVID19, I knew I had to help. I put my resources to work to raise money and volunteer for The Salvation Army, helping those directly affected by COVID-19. Many have lost jobs, paychecks, and are struggling to put food on the table. This is an unprecedented time, and we must continue to come together as Americans and help each other. We each need to do our part, whether that is raising money for charities,  volunteering if able, or even getting groceries for our neighbors,” said Senator McSally. “As a U.S Senator, I will continue to ensure that relief for hospitals, small businesses and hard-working individuals is prioritized. The days ahead will be tough, but working together we will prevail.”

“The Salvation Army is truly blessed by the efforts of the ’15 Days of Giving’ initiative,” said Lt. Colonel Kelly Pontsler, Commander of The Salvation Army Southwest Division, based in Phoenix. “The compassion and generosity shown by Senator McSally and her campaign team and volunteers will go a long way in helping Arizonans in need during this time of uncertainty.”
