Atlanta Journal Constitution: Iran war hits the Georgia airwaves

Democratic U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff is getting a $4.8 million assist from an outside group targeting Republican nominee U.S. Rep. Mike Collins over his support for President Donald Trump’s war in Iran.

Defend the Vote Action Fund, a voting rights advocacy organization aligned with Democrats, is launching an ad campaign Tuesday morning accusing Collins of rubber-stamping Trump’s foreign policy as the conflict drives up federal spending and gas prices.

“Mike Collins is always with Donald Trump, no matter how much it costs,” the narrator says in the ad. “On the war in Iran, Collins said, ‘I fully support President Trump and what he is doing in Iran,’ even though the conflict has already cost taxpayers $100 billion and caused gas prices to surge across Georgia.”

The campaign will run on broadcast television, radio and digital streaming platforms across metro Atlanta.
