Replies/Comments to : Who's attacking Karen Carter now?

Representative Karen Carter Peterson's accusations are completely false. Believe in Louisiana is running a completely positive radio ad in support of the scholarship bill. Believe in Louisiana has run television and radio ads in support of ethics reform, tax reform and now education reform. All of these efforts have been purely positive. Our current ad is no exception. See below for the full script of Believe in Louisiana's current radio ad in support of the scholarship bill.
