  • Building America’s Future Announces Six-Figure Ad Campaign Urging Congress to Stand with President Trump and Pass a Single Federal AI Standard

    New Spot Follows President Trump’s Call for “One Federal Standard” and Highlights How Federal AI Law is Key to Sustaining America’s Job Boom, Lowering Costs, and Beating China

    Building America’s Future (BAF), a conservative nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting President Trump’s America First agenda, today launched a new ad campaign urging Congress to stand with the President and establish one clear national standard for the regulation of artificial intelligence (AI) in order to continue America’s job boom, lower costs, and beat China in the AI race.

    BAF’s new ad underscores how the patchwork of conflicting state AI mandates currently in place, driven by liberal states like California, creates chaos and halts innovation. It argues that embracing AI innovation and a single, clear federal standard will be key to driving down costs and improving affordability for families and businesses.

    BAF’s campaign follows President Trump’s recent call for action on the issue. The President said in a Truth last month that AI investment is “helping to make the U.S. Economy the “HOTTEST” in the World, but overregulation by the States is threatening to undermine this Major Growth “Engine.” He continued by calling for “one Federal Standard instead of a patchwork of 50 State Regulatory Regimes. If we don’t, then China will easily catch us in the AI race.”

    The 30-second spot, “Now,” is backed by a six-figure buy and will run on TV and digital in Washington, D.C., beginning today.

    Watch the ad here.

    TRANSCRIPT:

    America is losing the AI race to China. 

    Liberal states are to blame.

    We can’t afford California’s chaos. We can’t leave Governor Newsom in charge. 

    President Trump knows. 

    PRESIDENT TRUMP: “You can’t have a state with standards that are so high that it’s going to hold you up. You have to have a federal rule and regulation.” 

    Congress must act, now: 

    Set one national rulebook that continues our jobs boom, lowers costs, and leaves China behind. 

    America leads or we lose. 

    Pass a federal AI standard.

  • Conservative Group Thanks Senate Republicans for Efforts to Reform the Broken 340B Drug Discount Program Ahead of Key Hearing

    30-Second Ad is Backed by a Six-Figure Ad Campaign in Washington, DC and Target States Bracketing Key Senate Hearing

    WASHINGTON – Building America’s Future (BAF), a conservative nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting President Trump’s America First agenda, today announced a new ad campaign calling out the waste, fraud, and abuse that has overtaken the 340B Drug Pricing Program thanks to greedy hospitals across the U.S. The spot also praises key Republican senators for their work to reform the program.

    As the ads making up the campaign note, recent revelations from the Vermont State House Committee on Healthcare prove the brokenness of the 340B program. A Vermont hospital, the Rutland Regional Medical Center, marked up a Crohn’s disease treatment from $8,000 to $96,000 under the 340B program – an increase of over 1000%.

    The effort by BAF comes ahead of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee hearing on the 340B Drug Pricing Program and praises Senate Republicans for leading the charge to clean up the program: “Some Senators are standing up for us – tackling this waste, fraud, abuse, and protecting access to health insurance. Senators: Thank you for putting patients over profits.” 

    The 30-second ad is backed by a mid-six-figure buy and will air on digital platforms in the coming weeks in Washington, DC and key target states listed below. As part of the campaign, BAF will bracket the Senate HELP Committee hearing with experiential outdoor advertising and an X takeover in Washington, DC. The ads thank the following members of the HELP Committee:

    • Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK)
    • Senator Roger Marshall (R-KS)
    • Senator Tim Scott (R-SC)
    • Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO)
    • Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL)
    • Senator Jim Banks (R-IN)
    • Senator Jon Husted (R-OH)
    • Senator Ashley Moody (R-FL)

    Watch the ad here.

    TRANSCRIPT:

    Certain hospitals and clinics exploit a charity program called 340B.

    They mark up medicine and we pay more for insurance and taxes. 

    One 340B hospital in Vermont marked up a vital treatment more than 1000% to $96,000. 

    It’s happening everywhere. 

    No one knows where the money goes… 

    But some Senators are standing up for us – tackling this waste, fraud, abuse

    And protecting access to health insurance.

    Senators: Thank you for putting patients over profits.

    The 340B Drug Program is a federal drug pricing program intended to serve as a lifeline for lower-income communities, but has instead become a powerful engine of healthcare consolidation in America. 

    The Ways and Means Committee recently held the “Oversight Subcommittee Hearing on Where Tax-Exempt Hospitals are Spending Your Tax Dollars,” discussing how nonprofit hospitals use their tax-exempt status to abuse the 340B program. And it’s not just Congress that’s calling out the program; news outlets across the country have begun pointing to hospitals in Michigan, Colorado, and North Dakota, where major abuse of the program has occurred.

    • Colorado: Uncompensated care meets 340B: Colorado’s numbers force a reckoning 
    • Michigan: Trump is fighting ‘egregious’ hospital drug markups, and Henry Ford Health isn’t happy
    • North Dakota: Uncovered Presentation Reveals How Sanford Health Uses Government Program to Transition Minors

    President Trump has been a staunch supporter of reforming this out-of-control program, joining his son and other conservative leaders in their critiques of the program. President Trump is working to reform the 340B program in Washington, and Congress’s OBBB includes $50 billion for rural hospitals, dispelling Big Hospitals’ excuse that the 340B program is a lifeline for rural hospitals.

    • Donald Trump Jr. X Post: “WTF!??? It’s bad enough that leftwing states are doing this crap to our kids, but Kentucky???”
    • HHS Secretary Robert F Kennedy testified before Congress recently, acknowledging that the program is “not a straightforward program” and patients “seldom get the benefits of the drug reduction.” 
    • Reilly Gaines has taken to X on the topic of 340B and found that “the 340B program is being used by a Kentucky CVS to give $$$ to a Massachusetts health care provider that is doing gender transitions on kids.” 

    A recent report by the Job Creators Network found that some hospitals participating in the 340B program are sheltering billions of dollars in profits offshore, underscoring how far the program has drifted from its charitable intent and how urgently reforms are needed to restore accountability and fairness.

    BACKGROUND:

    • Building America’s Future in September ran an X takeover campaign thanking Michigan Speaker of the House Matt Hall for standing with President Trump to crack down on the abuse of the 340B Drug Pricing Program. 
    • Polling from BAF was released in July that showed Republicans sour on legislators who work against President Trump to expand the 340B program in the states.
    • In February, BAF debuted box truck campaigns outside of the State Houses in Kentucky, North Dakota, and Nebraska that read: “340B is subsidizing gender transitions for kids.”
    • In January, BAF released the ad “Sabotage,” urging state lawmakers to work with President Trump to end the out-of-control 340B program that subsidizes health care for illegal aliens and gender transitions for kids.
    • BAF debuted the ad “Say No” in April 2024, thanking VA Governor Glen Youngkin for rejecting the expansion of the 340B program and encouraging others to follow his lead.
    • In February 2024, BAF launched the ad “Healthcare for Illegal Immigrants” highlighting how the 340b Drug Pricing Program launched American taxpayers’ dollars to pay for the healthcare of illegal immigrants.

At Building America’s Future, we could not be more proud to stand with an administration and GOP Congress that is truly building a brighter future for America.”

    Transcript:

    Think about all they’ve done to Donald Trump. 

    First it was hoaxes, witch hunts, and impeachments. 

    Then it was FBI raids, courtrooms, and mug shots. 

    Finally, it was bullets in a Pennsylvania field.

    And after all that, this man stood up, 

    With blood draining down his face,

    Pumped his fist in the air and told us to Fight. Fight. Fight. 

    TRUMP: “America’s future will be bigger, better, bolder, brighter, happier, stronger, free-er, greater, and more united than ever before. 

    And we will Make America Great Again.”

    We know what they think of us…

    BIDEN: “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters.”

    So if Donald Trump can get through all of that, 

    We can get out to vote.
