Hudson for Alabama

ad creative

Ad copy

I just paid $500 for two batteries for my truck. When I was at the auto parts store, I checked out the batteries in my account that I had paid for over the past decade. In just the past decade, the battery I bought has DOUBLED in price. What’s next? Will I be paying $1000 for two batteries in 10 more years? I have three young girls, and I want them to grow up with the same opportunities that I had. Which is exactly why I’m running for the U.S. Senate. Alabama needs a fighter.
