Former Vice President Mike Pence will launch his first major ad campaign blitz since leaving office by targeting 16 Democrats.

Launched by Pence’s organization Advancing American Freedom, the $10 million ad campaign will advocate an America returning to energy independence, a timely topic following the surge in gas prices amid inflation and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

In a statement to Breitbart News, the former vice president said that putting America back on track toward energy independence will stand up to Putin and perpetuate “American freedom.”
