The Bonamici campaign today released a new positive television ad that summarizes the core value Suzanne Bonamici has presented during the campaign: controlling federal spending starts with getting our priorities straight – and once we do that we can reduce the debt and invest in job creation to get our country and our economy back on track.

This core value – and Bonamici’s work ethic and record of accomplishment – is why she has received overwhelming editorial support from newspapers throughout the district. It is also why hundreds of volunteers have given time to make calls and knock on doors to share the positive energy and enthusiasm they have for Bonamici’s candidacy for Congress.

Watch the ad here:

Bonamici has been endorsed by The Daily Astorian, Beaverton Valley Times, News Times of Forest Grove, Hillsboro Argus, Portland Tribune, The Oregonian, Regal Courier, The South County Spotlight, The Tigard-Tualatin-Sherwood Times and the Willamette Week.

She also has the support of more individuals, small business owners, advocacy groups, community leaders and elected officials across the district, who are supporting her because she is smart, focused, and diligent, has a proven record and is on the side of Oregon families. Read their testimonials here.

Max Richtman, president of the National Committee to Preserve Social Security and Medicare, traveled to Beaverton to show his support of Suzanne: “She’s for the people, she’s for the consumer and she is a fighter.” As a symbol of the debate in Congress between those who want to privatize Social Security and Medicare — and those, like Suzanne, who don’t, Max gave her a pair of red boxing gloves.
