DSCC Television Ad Links Smith’s Support For Big Oil To High Gas Prices

As gas prices continue to soar, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee began airing a new television advertisement today highlighting the hundreds of thousands of dollars Gordon Smith has taken from Big Oil and his votes to give the industry billions of dollars in special tax breaks. The new ad comes as the DSCC also launched a new website www.BoughtByBigOil.com to expose Republican Senators’ support for policies that leave Americans paying higher gas prices while oil companies rack up hundreds of billions in profits.

“Gordon Smith’s campaign has been financed by the big oil companies that are making record profits at the expense of average Oregonians,” DSCC spokesman Matthew Miller said. “With hundreds of thousands of dollars of Big Oil money lining Gordon Smith’s campaign coffers, it’s no wonder he thinks they deserve billions in special tax breaks, but he is clearly out of touch with his constituents.”
