The Congressional Leadership Fund has a new digital ad slamming Democrats for “the same old, liberal ideas.”

The ad from the pro-Republican PAC accuses Democrats of having “no new agenda” and points to single-payer health care and sanctuary cities as their main issues.

“There’s no new agenda,” the narrator says. “Behind the poll-test slogans are the same, old liberal ideas.”



House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, California Democrat and a favorite target in Republican attack ads, is once again highlighted as answering to Hollywood elites and extremist activists.

“The Democrats are the party of the resistance,” the narrator says over images of protesters smashing storefront windows and setting cars on fire.

There was no word on the size of the ad buy or how long it would run.

Democrats have been trying to rebrand their party after a crushing defeat in elections last year on the presidential and congressional level. The party was set to roll out an economic-based agenda Monday as part of the reset.
