A group backing Lt. Gov. Sara Rodriguez in the governor’s race is up with a second TV ad praising her plan to lower healthcare costs.
Wisconsin Forward Fund has now spent more than $820,000 on ads, according to AdImpact, and the new spot began running in the Madison and Milwaukee media markets last week.
The narrator in the new Wisconsin Forward Fund ad says Rodriguez is the granddaughter of dairy farmers who grew up in a union household and became a nurse and public health leader. The narrator then adds she won a Republican-held Assembly seat in Waukesha County then joined “Governor Evers and won statewide as lieutenant governor.”
The narrator then pivots to GOP gubernatorial frontrunner Tom Tiffany, who “voted to raise healthcare costs for Wisconsin families.” The narrator adds Rodriguez would create a public option to lower premiums and prescription drug costs.

“Tom Tiffany raised costs. Democrat Sara Rodriguez has a plan to lower them,” the narrator says to end the spot.
