Katie Britt makes closing case in final primary election TV spot — ‘Your word is your bond’

In her final TV ad of the 2022 primary election cycle, Republican U.S. Senate hopeful Katie Britt is making her pitch to voters as to why she should become Alabama’s next junior senator.

Britt’s 30-second spot touches on the first-time candidate’s positions regarding abortion, gun rights, illegal immigration and energy policy.

“Growing up here in Alabama, I learned your word is your bond,” says Britt in the ad. “I’m running to be your senator, so you deserve to know where I stand. I’ll protect life, defend our Second Amendment, fight for stronger borders, and make sure that America is energy independent.”

She concludes, “I’m running this race for my kids and for yours. I love this state, and I believe in this state. Together, we’ll create more opportunity for Alabama and make America safe and secure. I’m Katie Britt, and I approve this message. And I would be honored to earn your vote.”

Watch:

In a statement reflecting on her campaign, Britt spoke to what she asserted to be the “incredible momentum” that her candidacy had received from the grassroots.

“We have been working nonstop on the campaign trail for nearly 12 months now, travelling to all 67 counties to visit with hardworking Alabamians and learn more about how their next U.S. Senator can help them thrive,” said Britt. “The momentum we are feeling on the ground every day is incredible – it is clear that the people of Alabama want fresh blood to usher in the next generation of conservative leadership and shake things up in Washington.”

“The future of Alabama is on the ballot, and I’d be honored to earn your vote on May 24,” she continued. “In the Senate, I will fight tirelessly to defend our Christian conservative values, advance the America First agenda, and preserve the American Dream for our children and our children’s children.”

Britt will appear on the May 24, 2022, GOP primary ballot along with U.S. Army veteran Mike Durant and U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Huntsville).
