No on Government Waste Committee Calls on AIDS Healthcare Foundation to Halt Illegal Measure B TV Ad
 

Los Angeles ? Blasting a new television ad featuring paid performers, the No on Government Waste Committee called on the AIDS Healthcare Foundation to remove an ad that it calls misleading, erroneous and that violates state election law in the fight over Measure B, the so-called ?Safer Sex? initiative on the Nov. 6th ballot in Los Angeles County.

?This ad featuring Derrick Burts and Darren James does not disclose that both men were well-compensated by AHF for their appearances, nor does the disclaimer meet state requirements for information, location and size in order to allow voters to be properly informed,? said James Lee, communications director for the No on Government Waste Committee. ?If AHF does not remove this ad, nor make the necessary corrections, our only alternative is to file a complaint with the Fair Political Practices Commission and force them to abide by the law.?
