<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yH637MBEorg> ****See Early Media Coverage Below*** Washington D.C. - Americans United for Change unveiled a new television ad today that invokes images of President John F. Kennedy and compares his challenge of putting a man on the moon that led to the technological jobs of the future to President Obama's challenge to create millions of new clean energy jobs for our generation. The ad called "Jobs of the Future" will air on DC cable this week as the U.S. House Energy and Commerce Committee continues work on "The American Clean Energy and Security Act." <http://energycommerce.house.gov/index.php?option=com_content&view=artic le&id=1622:chairmen-waxman-and-markey-introduce-the-american-clean-energ y-and-security-act&catid=155:statements&Itemid=55> Tom McMahon, Acting Executive Director, Americans United for Change: "Congress is acting quickly to meet President Obama's challenge for a clean energy future with transformational legislation that will wean our nation off its dependence foreign oil, dramatically curb pollution that causes global warming, save American consumers hundreds of billions of dollars in energy costs -- all while creating millions of new clean energy jobs. When the time comes, will the Republican Party of NO join with President Obama in his historic effort to grow our economy, improve our energy security, and create millions of green jobs -- or will they continue to look out for big oil's bottom line?" -30- " Jobs of the Future" Ad Back-Up Americans United For Change TV (:30) SCRIPT FACTS ANNCR: Fifty years ago a young President challenged us to put a man on the moon. John Kennedy's vision put America in the forefront of the technological revolution that created the jobs of the future -- for a generation of Americans. "I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth. No single space project in this period will be more impressive to mankind, or more important for the long-range exploration of space." [President John F.

Kit Bond (R-MO) put out a report entitled, "Yellow Light on Green Jobs," which argues that clean energy jobs are too expensive. He has said, "Green jobs are not so much created as they are bought with massive taxpayers subsidies."

Kennedy's Apollo project and lumping Republicans alongside "oil companies" in the opposition. Titled "Jobs of the Future," the spot will begin airing on D.C. cable starting on Wednesday and throughout the week. "Fifty years ago, a young President challenged us to put a man on the moon. John Kennedy's vision put America in the forefront of the technological revolution that created the jobs of the future -- for a generation Americans," reads the script. "Today President Obama has challenged us again -- to create the jobs of the future for our generation -- millions of clean energy jobs. But the oil companies and the Republicans just say no." The ad comes roughly a week after several media outlets reported that Obama's stimulus package was not being implemented in an expeditious manner, and as Congress currently debates a climate change bill that proponents say would create "millions" of new green jobs. Two key Democrats in the House -- Reps. John Dingell of Michigan and Gene Green of Texas -- have signaled support <http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5h5iS14YOIUrpdmPuNylwK cVpSnmAD988S3BG0> for the legislation, increasing its odds of passage. But Republican opposition won't be light. "When the time comes," said Jeremy Funk, the communications director at Americans United for Change, "will the Party of NO help President Obama create millions of green jobs -- or keep looking out for big oil's bottom line?" http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0509/AUC_ad_features_Obama_Kenned y_clean_energy_jobs.html?showall May 19, 2009 Categories: White House <http://dyn.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/index.cfm/category/WhiteHouse> AUC ad features Obama, Kennedy, 'clean-energy jobs' A new ad from Americans United for Change compares Obama's push for "clean-energy jobs" -- the new rhetorical label for a range of environmental policies -- with Kennedy's quest to put a man on the moon. "President Obama has challenged us again to create the jobs of the future," says the narrator, accusing Republicans and energy companies of "saying no to progress." The ad is airing on D.C. cable, but it offers a glimpse of the coming sales push.

The ad, which promotes Pres. Obama's energy plan, will air through the end of the week. "Fifty years ago a young President challenged us to put a man on the moon," says a narrator. "John Kennedy's vision put America in the forefront of the technological revolution that created the jobs of the future -- for a generation Americans. Today President Obama has challenged us again - to create the jobs of the future for our generation - millions of clean energy jobs." The ad asks voters to call their members of Congress to issue their support for Obama's proposal. "When the time comes, will the Party of NO help President Obama create millions of green jobs -- or keep looking out for big oil's bottom line?" said Jeremy Funk, comm. dir. of the group. http://www.nationaljournal.com/hotline/lastcall.php Tuesday . . . 5/19/2009 . . . 4 pm WHAT'S NEWS . . . * Americans United for Change is going up with a TV ad <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yH637MBEorg> tomorrow, painting the GOP as obstructionists on Obama's job plan. The ad will run on DC cable through the end of the week (Last Call! sources). Liberal group slams Republicans on energy bill <http://www.boston.com/news/politics/politicalintelligence/2009/05/liber al_group_s.html> http://www.boston.com/news/politics/politicalintelligence/2009/05/libera l_group_s.html Posted by Foon Rhee, deputy national political editor May 19, 2009 03:31 PM Trying to counter Republican opposition to sweeping climate change legislation moving through Congress, a liberal-labor coalition is calling them obstructionists tied to Big Oil. Americans United for Change, in a TV ad that is to begin airing Wednesday in Washington, in contrast compares President Obama to another young, ambitious Democrat. "Fifty years ago a young President challenged us to put a man on the moon. John Kennedy's vision put America in the forefront of the technological revolution that created the jobs of the future -- for a generation Americans," the announcer says. "Today President Obama has challenged us again - to create the jobs of the future for our generation - millions of clean energy jobs. But the oil companies and the Republicans just say no. There have always been those who said no to progress. But America has never taken no for an answer." The spot ends with a plea to call Congress to urge passage of the bill, which supporters say will create clean energy jobs and reduce carbon emissions. The ad is the latest in a series trying to paint Republicans as the "party of no" -- opposing Obama's agenda, but bereft of any ideas of their own. Republicans say the cap-and-trade global warming bill would mean huge energy tax increases -- the last thing the economy needs during a recession. http://briefingroom.thehill.com/2009/05/19/video-auc-compares-obama-to-j fk/ VIDEO: AUC compares Obama to JFK <http://briefingroom.thehill.com/2009/05/19/video-auc-compares-obama-to- jfk/> @ 2:13 pm by Jeremy P. Jacobs <http://briefingroom.thehill.com/author/jjacobs/> Americans United for Change is going up with another TV advertisement on Wednesday promoting President Obama's plans for job creation and hitting Republicans for their opposition. The ad draws parallels between Obama and President John Kennedy. "Fifty years ago a young President challenged us to put a man on the moon," the narrator says. "John Kennedy's vision put America in the forefront of the technological revolution that created the jobs of the future - for a generation Americans. "Today President Obama has challenged us again - to create the jobs of the future for our generation - millions of clean energy jobs." And, as it has in the past, the group labels the GOP as the "party of no." "But the oil companies and the Republicans just say no," it says. The ad is going on D.C. cable on Tuesday and will run through the end of the week, so not a particularly large ad buy.
