Moms for Liberty to spend over $3 million targeting presidential swing state voters
The conservative parental rights group Moms for Liberty plans to spend more than $3 million on a multi-state advertising blitz to increase its membership and engage voters before November, following through on a pledge it made last year to become more politically active across the country in 2024. The group hopes to expand its efforts to the three other swing states that will help decide the presidential contest.
