Sherrod Brown’s Position on Illegal Immigration Draws Fire in New Ohio Ad

Ohio Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown is facing criticism over his stance on illegal immigration and support for policies that benefit undocumented immigrants, according to a new multimillion-dollar ad campaign. The ad, from One Nation, a group tied to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, highlights Brown’s votes against measures to prevent illegal immigrants from accessing taxpayer-funded benefits and in favor of Biden’s American Rescue Plan, which provided COVID-19 relief funds to undocumented residents. Brown’s race is considered one of the most competitive in the country, with border security emerging as a top issue for voters. As President Biden faces low approval ratings, Brown, among other vulnerable Democrats, is predicted to distance himself from the president.
