AFP-IN Launches Robust Mail and Digital Campaign Supporting Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s Confirmation to the U.S. Supreme Court

Jul 17, 2018 by AFP

Indianapolis, Ind. – Americans for Prosperity today announced a six-figure direct mail and digital ad campaign as part of the organization’s multimillion-dollar effort to support Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation to the U.S. Supreme Court. This week, Hoosiers will receive mailers highlighting Judge Kavanaugh’s demonstrated commitment to defending the Constitution and interpreting the law as written – not legislating from the bench, and asking them to contact Senator Donnelly and urge him to support Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination.

A new thirty second digital ad, and website, UniteForKavanaugh.com, was also unveiled today and will accompany the mail effort by urging Americans to tell Senator Donnelly to support Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation.

The paid media effort supplements the efforts of AFP activists, who have already knocked on 1,000 doors and made 20,000 phone calls urging Hoosiers to call Senator Donnelly.

Americans for Prosperity-Indiana State Director Justin Stevens issued the following statement:

“We’ve already seen from just a week of canvassing that Hoosiers overwhelmingly want Judge Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court. Kavanaugh has a strong record of interpreting the law as written and not legislating from the bench and his confirmation to the high court is another historic opportunity for the American people. As activists across Indiana focus their energy on urging Sen. Donnelly to support Judge Kavanaugh we hope the senator recognizes that a vote against Kavanaugh is a vote against the will of Hoosiers.”

Background on Americans for Prosperity efforts: 

Americans for Prosperity has committed seven figures to paid advertising and grassroots engagement in support of Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation. Door and phone scripts have already been deployed to each of the 36 AFP state chapters, and this is the first round of mail, door hangers and digital ads that will be deployed in Indiana, West Virginia, North Dakota, Florida, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Montana, Ohio, Michigan, and Alabama.  AFP will host events, tele-townhalls, and Facebook Live conversations with key lawmakers about the proper role of courts, and the importance of confirming judges who interpret the law as written.
