A national anti-abortion group is rewarding Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle (R-NY) for her vote to defund Planned Parenthood, with a spate of positive television ads. The ads—which will cost the Susan. B. Anthony List, a pro-life organization, a cool $75,000—will run for four days in Buerkle’s congressional district.The ads are part of a $200,000 campaign by the Susan. B.
