ALBANY, N.Y. – The 60 Plus Association, nationally recognized as the conservative alternative to the liberal AARP, today announced it will spend nearly $550,000 on issue ads in New York’s 20th Congressional District.

“Scott Murphy is not listening to New York’s seniors,” said Jim Martin, Chairman of 60 Plus.  “His vote for ObamaCare will raise taxes in New York, cut $500 billion from the Medicare budget, and reduce the quality of health care for America’s Greatest Generation.  Scott Murphy didn’t listen to seniors during his appointment to the U.S. House of Representatives, but he will have to listen when they say ‘you’re fired’ at the ballot box this November.”

Featuring voices from the district, the 30-second ad will begin airing on September 16.
