To: Ted Cruz and Republicans

Stop Spreading Dangerous Misinformation

An Oregon school district is calling on networks to pull one of Senator Ted Cruz’s ads targeting transgender athletes. Why? Because the campaign ad uses images of student athletes without parental consent while intentionally misleading viewers about their gender identity.

Cruz’s lies about and demonization of trans kids in these ads is intentional—it’s part of the GOP’s plan to detract from its dangerous agenda. 

This is just the latest round of fearmongering lies in a monthslong ad blitz slamming Democratic candidates over support for transgender Americans and gender-affirming care for students. Add your name to call on Ted Cruz and Republicans to take down these dishonest and dangerous ads NOW!

Why is this important?

Multiple groups supporting Sen. Cruz’s campaign in Texas have spent nearly $16 million on aggressive ads bashing support for transgender athletes competing in women's sports.

It’s overwhelmingly clear that Cruz and his cronies would rather spout blatant lies than talk about the real issues impacting Americans. Lying about trans kids is just the latest tactic in their playbook of distracting voters from the GOP’s dangerous agenda—an agenda that would criminalize essential health care and make communities less safe for our children.

Contrary to what these sham ads would have you believe, the reality is that gender-affirming care is backed as medically necessary by leading health groups like the American Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics. 

We need to elect leaders who value honesty, transparency, and the truth. The health of our kids and our entire democracy is at stake. Republicans must stop running ads with blatant lies.

Sign the petition to demand Ted Cruz and Republicans pull these dishonest and dangerous ads from the air!
