2018 AdWatch: on Drugs


Marty Jackley: Double headline - Already Done

[Adam Laxalt, first TV ad]: [photo of mother with young child; Laxalt speaking offscreen]: I was born to a single mom, Michelle. Didn't know my dad growing up at all. I started drinking in Middle School. That continued to accelerate as I got into High School.

[Photo: high school lockers]: I had to go to a treatment facility [subtitle: At age 18, Adam sought treatment to overcome in alcohol addiction]

Trying to maintain sobriety is one of the toughest challenges I've ever faced

[Laxalt speaking to camera]: You start from the bottom rebuild everything

I swore into the Navy JAG Corps in 2004. In 2006 I volunteered to go over to Iraq with an army military police Brigade.

[Narrator speaking over photos]: Adam Laxalt returned home to Nevada; started a family˙with his wife Jamie and answered the call of service once again as our attorney general.
