WATCH: Allan Fung's First General Election Campaign Ad

The Fung for Governor Campaign today released the first television advertisement of the General Election campaign.  The ad, which is entitled “American Dream” highlights Mayor Allan Fung’s working class background and recalls his parents’ decision to leave their homes in search of the American dream.

Through this advertisement, voters are reminded of Fung’s most notable accomplishments as Mayor of Cranston, including freezing taxes for three consecutive years and bringing more than one thousand new, private sector jobs to the community.  The message continues with Fung’s commitment to achieve the same results for the State of Rhode Island and to provide real opportunity for the next generation.

The advertisement concludes with a tagline, “One of Us.  Working for Us.” to reinforce Fung’s commitment to honor his roots as a member of a hard-working family, which operated a Rhode Island small business, and to create economic opportunity to benefit all Rhode Islanders.

“I am using this advertisement to remind voters that I share the background of many of our hard-working residents and that I am committed to restoring our economy and creating real job opportunities that will make the American dream available for the next generation, just as it was available when my parents came to Rhode Island almost fifty years ago,” concluded Fung.
