KAINE LAUNCHES NEW SPANISH TELEVISION AD, "APOYAR"

Richmond, VA - Today, Tim Kaine launched his second Spanish-language television ad, "Apoyar," continuing his extensive outreach to Virginia's Latino voters. The ad features Virginians sharing the reasons they support Tim Kaine for the United States Senate, including his focus on improving education and job opportunities, his support for comprehensive immigration reform, his appreciation for the culture and contributions of Virginia Latinos. It concludes with Kaine speaking Spanish direct to camera as he asks voters for their support.

"Throughout my career in public service as a missionary in Honduras, a civil rights attorney, and in elected office, I have worked to bring people together and ensure everyone has a seat at the table," said Kaine. "As senator, I will be a voice for all Virginians as we seek to improve education opportunities for our children, reform our immigration system, and strengthen our economy by supporting our small businesses, investing in infrastructure, responsibly reducing the deficit, and breaking through Washington's partisan gridlock."

"Apoyar," which will air in major media markets across Virginia, is part of the unprecedented $250,000 Spanish-language advertising campaign Tim Kaine launched in August with a thirty second television ad and sixty second radio ad entitled "Valores." He has also engaged Virginia Latinos through a comprehensive Spanish language website (www.kaineforva.com/es), a consistent presence in Spanish-language media, and numerous events with Latino business and community leaders. Latinos for Kaine, a group launched in January by more than 100 Virginians, now includes more than 250 Virginia Latinos committed to sharing Kaine's record and values with their friends and neighbors.

Termina con Kaine hablando directamente a la camara en espanol pidiendo el apoyo de los votantes.

"Durante mi carrera en el servicio al publico como misionario en Honduras, abogado de derechos civiles, y como funcionario elegido, he trabajado para juntar la gente y asegurar que todos tengan un lugar en la mesa," dijo Kaine. "Como senador, yo sere una voz para todos los virginianos mientras buscamos como mejorar las oportunidades educativas para nuestros hijos, reformar el sistema de inmigracion, y fortalecer la economia mediante el apoyo a nuestras pequenas empresas, la inversion en la infraestructura, la reduccion responsable del deficit, y el vencimiento de la paralizacion partidista de Washington.

"Apoyar," que saldra al aire en los mercados principales por todo Virginia, es parte de la campana publicitaria en espanol sin precedentes valorizada en $250,000 que Kaine lanzo en agosto con un comercial de television de treinta segundos y un comercial de radio de sesenta segundos llamado "Valores." El se ha acercado a los latinos de Virginia mediante un sitio web completo en espanol (www.kaineforva.com/es), una presencia constante en los medios de habla espanol, y con numerosos eventos con lideres latinos empresariales y comunitarios. Latinos con Kaine, un grupo lanzado en enero por mas de 100 virginianos, ahora incluye mas de 250 latinos de Virginia comprometidos a compartir con sus amigos y vecinos el record y los valores de Kaine.
