WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Todd Tiahrt’s U.S. Senate campaign today announced the launch of a statewide radio ad featuring Dr. James Dobson. Dobson is a best-selling author and family advocate. He is the founder of the pro-family non-profit organization that produces his internationally syndicated radio programs where his commentaries are heard by more than 220 million people every day.

“Todd Tiahrt is a trusted conservative champion and his message of smaller government, lower taxes and traditional family values is resonating across the state,” said Michelle Schroeder, spokesperson for the Tiahrt campaign. “Dr. Dobson recognizes that Todd Tiahrt is the conservative fighter we need in the U.S. Senate and his steadfast support and assistance is a beacon to conservatives everywhere that Todd is their candidate.“

Text of the ad: “Well hello everyone, I’m Dr. James Dobson. You know, Congressman Todd Tiahrt has been an unwavering champion of the family for more than 15 years in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Congressman Tiahrt has never cowered in the face of a tough fight. Whether defending the rights of the unborn or standing up for traditional marriage, Todd consistently fights those important battles, when others too often choose to stand on the sidelines.

And he not only votes the right way, but he also helps lead the fight.

Now, Todd Tiahrt is looking to bring those same convictions to the U.S. Senate.
