A national Republican committee will begin running digital ads next week that challenge Reps. Abigail Spanberger and Elaine Lurias support for an impeachment inquiry and paint the Virginia Democrats as too liberal for their districts.
Facebook ads purchased by the National Republican Congressional Committee will begin appearing Monday in 16 districts, and more may be added, spokeswoman Camille Gallo said.
The buy includes some but not all Trump districts that the president won in 2016, such as the ones Spanberger and Luria represent.
The congresswomen, who were part of a wave of Democrats who flipped red districts blue, ran on their backgrounds in national security and promised to vote independent of the Democratic Party. The ads seek to energize independent and Republican voters opposed to impeachment.
