As GOP candidates race to outdo each other's obstructionism, Braley discusses motivation, approach to working for Iowans

DES MOINES, IA - As the Republican primary for US Senate takes an increasingly rightward turn in its closing days, Braley for Iowa launched a positive TV ad today featuring Rep. Bruce Braley speaking about why he's motivated to fight for Iowans and how he approaches standing up for people. The spot is the third of Braley's Senate campaign.

Braley said, "Fighting for Iowans means knowing them - who Iowans are, what Iowans care about, and the challenges that Iowans are facing. I grew up in Brooklyn, Iowa, and worked my way through college doing jobs like road construction, waiting tables, and driving trucks. I worked as a lawyer in Waterloo representing Iowans, from farmers struggling through the farm crisis to families denied insurance benefits they deserved. And I've fought for working families in Congress to improve wages and create job growth. I'm running for Senate to strengthen and expand opportunities for working families, because that's where I come from."

The 30 second spot starts airing on broadcast and cable TV today across the state of Iowa with no set end-date.
