Baton Rouge, La. – Quentin Anthony Anderson, Democratic Congressional candidate for Louisiana’s 6th District, today unveiled a new campaign ad, title “We Are Better Than This,” spotlighting the systemic challenges plaguing Louisiana and offering a vision for a brighter future. Drawing on distressing statistics that rank Louisiana at the bottom for economic growth and opportunity, the ad serves as a wake-up call for change.
“Louisiana ranks 50th in economic growth and 50th in economic opportunity,” Anderson states in the ad, laying bare the realities that have hindered the state’s progress. He goes on to highlight the contrast between Louisiana’s high gun ownership and its poor rankings in public safety and corrections outcomes, asserting, “We have a higher incarceration rate in Louisiana than literally every Sovereign Nation in NATO.”
Anderson’s ad takes a firm stance against the status quo of political leadership in the state, criticizing the longstanding tradition of politicians serving special interests over the public good. “For too long, this state has gotten too comfortable with its political leaders being bought and paid for by the highest bidders instead of representing the interests of the people they serve,” he declares, echoing the frustrations of many Louisianians seeking accountability and integrity in their elected officials.
Despite the stark picture painted, Anderson’s message is ultimately one of hope and potential: “But Louisiana, we are better than this. We’re better than crooked politicians who refuse to take accountability. We’re better than 49th. We are better than 50th. Louisiana can be the greatest, most prosperous place on Earth.”
The ad concludes with a rallying cry for change: “If we want to see something different, we have to do something different.”
“We Are Better Than This” is a call to action for all voters of the 6th District who believe in the possibility of a better Louisiana. Quentin Anderson’s campaign is built on the principles of justice, economic equality, and a commitment to serve the true interests of the people.
