Indianapolis, IN – Christina Hale today released her first television ad of the general election. The 60-second spot highlights her work to improve the lives of children here in Indiana and around the world, both as an executive at Kiwanis International and during her time in the Indiana General Assembly.

“My life’s work has been focused on supporting children around the world and here in our community, and I’m running for Congress to continue working for Hoosier families,” said Christina Hale. “Access to affordable health care has never been more important, and I’ll fight to ensure all Hoosier kids, and their families, have quality care that doesn’t break the bank.”

Hale’s campaign in IN-05 is one of the top pickup opportunities for Democrats nationally. National Journal recently listed the district as the 8^th-most likely to flip in November. This ranking follows ratings changes from Cook Political Report and Sabato’s Crystal Ball, with both nonpartisan election forecasters moving the race to “Toss Up.”
