Climate-focused advocacy groups say they’re putting $55 million into an ad campaign to elect Vice President Harris to the presidency.
The League of Conservation Voters Victory Fund, Environmental Defense Fund Action Votes, and Climate Power Action said they are launching the ads, alongside the Democratic-aligned Future Forward PAC.
The ads will run in the key swing states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, as well as Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District, as the state splits its electoral votes.
A press release highlighted three ads that will be part of the campaign.
One spot declares that bolstering the middle class will be a “defining goal” of a Harris presidency; another seeks to contrast Harris’s record with former President Trump’s on issues including standing up to banks and major oil companies.
The third advertisement declares Harris will “triple America’s clean energy production,” saving consumers money on their electric bills.

League of Conservation Voters spokesperson David Willett said that the three ads announced on Monday are only the first part of the total $55 million and that other ads are expected in the months ahead as part of the same program. He declined to say how much was being spent on each ad.
The ad campaign will include broadcast and cable ads, as well as ads on websites such as YouTube.
