NEW: Josh Turek for Iowa Releases New Ad, “Goodwill,” Highlighting How Josh’s Working-Class Upbringing Drives His Fight to Root Out Corruption In Washington

The new spot highlights Josh’s commitment to addressing the corruption in both parties because it’s families like his that pay the price

Des Moines, IA – Today, Josh Turek for Iowa released its latest ad, “Goodwill,” which features Josh speaking directly to Iowans about his experience growing up in a working-class family and shopping at Goodwill for clothes. Josh knows it’s families like his that pay the price of Washington’s corruption, and that’s why he’ll work with anyone to tackle corruption in both parties and root out self-serving politicians like Ashley Hinson.

“We didn’t have a lot growing up. But my parents instilled a work ethic. It got us through tough times. Right now, Iowans are paying a high cost for Washington’s corruption, and that has to end. It’s what drives me now to push for change in Iowa,” said Josh in the new spot. “Politicians like Ashley Hinson who get rich while voting to raise our prices need to go.”

Josh knows the struggle that so many Iowans are feeling right now because he’s felt it too. Meanwhile, Ashley Hinson is an out-of-touch millionaire who has repeatedly voted to raise prices on Iowans to enrich herself and her donors. Ashley Hinson voted seven times to continue the war that has driven up gas prices for everyday Iowans and five times for the tariffs that have made everything more expensive. She voted to kick 110,000 Iowans off their health care and raise health care prices on 119,000 Iowans. All the while, Hinson’s net worth increased by up to $8,000,000 while she raked in millions from the corporate PACs, Big Pharma, and Big Oil industries that profit off the high prices Iowans pay.

The Josh Turek for Iowa campaign has been blanketing screens across Iowa for months. The campaign started the general election running “USA,” a spot that features Josh speaking directly to Iowans about his lifelong commitment to putting country over party, followed by “Prove It,” which highlights the more than 700 times Josh voted with Iowa Republicans. “I-35,” “Border,” and “Safe” all spotlight Josh’s commitment to working with anyone – including President Trump – to fix our broken immigration system and keep Iowans safe.

The campaign also released “Went Through Hell” and “Underdog,” which highlight Josh’s persistent fight in the face of adversity; “C’mon,” and “Change” which spotlight Ashley Hinson’s longstanding record of corrupt self-dealing in D.C.; and “Getting Hammered,” which features Josh’s conversation with an Iowa farmer about the impact of record-high diesel prices as we hit peak harvest season.

[JOSH]: As kids, we made up a song about where most of our clothes came from.

The answer was the Goodwill.

We didn’t have a lot growing up, but my parents instilled a work ethic that got us through tough times.

Right now, Iowans are paying a high cost for Washington’s corruption, and that has to end.

It’s what drives me now to push for change in Iowa.

Politicians like Ashley Hinson who get rich while voting to raise our prices need to go.

I’m Josh Turek, and I approve this message.
