“Out of touch Democrat Derek Tran voted to shortchange our troops and squeeze military families with higher taxes. Tran turned his back on our heroes, and Californians won’t forget it.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez

SCRIPT:

Our troops sacrifice everything for America.
Democrats sacrifice their well-being for politics.
First, Democrats opposed $8.5 billion for money and bonuses for troops.
Blocking money to fix up housing, health care, and child care.
Then Democrats pushed the largest tax hike in generations.
Punishing our troops, making them pay thousands more.
Hurting military families.
Putting all of us in danger.
Tell Democrats: Stop harming our heroes.
