Fighting to keep his seat from Republican challenger Bill Flores, incumbent U.S. Rep. Chet Edwards, D-Waco, went on the air Wednesday with a new television ad highlighting his support for veterans.
It's called "Hay." Here's the script:
"For far too long our troops came home from war and didn't get the respect or the care they deserved. Our veterans kept their promise, and then Washington broke theirs. That's why when Washington wanted to shut down the Waco VA hospital, I fought them and we won. And I'll fight anyone, anywhere, who would hurt our veterans by privatizing the VA. I'm Chet Edwards. I approve this message, because there's so much at stake."
