Catholics United just launched an ad campaign supporting a progressive budget for 2010.

The radio ads emphasizes that the budget is a moral statement, not just an economic plan, and thanks several Senators for passing a budget that includes an expansion of health care and green job creation. It is the largest ad campaign the organization has undertaken.

Check out the script:

In First Thessalonians, Chapter 5 verses 14 through 18 Paul writes,

“…encourage the fainthearted,

help the weak…

seek after that which is good for one another and for ALL people

…and in everything, give thanks.”

Today, people of faith across [STATE] give thanks to Senator [NAME] for supporting the economic recovery plan in next year’s budget.

This leadership is needed today more than ever.

Our nation and our families are facing great challenges including record unemployment and astronomical health care costs

This budget will lead to long term prosperity by creating clean energy jobs and investing in health care.

And these investments serve everyone, not just those at the top

For supporting that which is good for all people, we say Senator [NAME], thank you.
