Airing in Florida and Nevada, the ad will further serve to remind voters of Romney's insincere and disingenuous outreach strategy to Hispanic voters, as well as highlight the former Massachusetts Governor's hypocritically-low tax rate despite his millionaire status. While accusing immigrants of coming to this country to look for handouts, Romney helped himself to a massive handout on the federal government's dime with a tax rate of 13.9 percent.
"Although Mitt Romney may walk away winning the Florida GOP primary, he can't walk back his support of treating immigrants so terribly that they are forced to self-deport," said SEIU Secretary-Treasurer Eliseo Medina. "He can't walk back the fact that as head of Bain Capital he fired thousands of workers. He can't walk back the fact that as a multimillionaire he pays less in taxes than the majority of hardworking Latinos. As he heads into states with more Latinos, his 'dos caras' with our community will become even more evident."
Although the SEIU-Priorities USA Action campaign is targeting Mitt Romney, no current GOP presidential candidate, including Newt Gingrich or Rick Santorum, is a viable alternative for Hispanic voters.
