Ad highlights Mayor Henry’s investments in public safety

(October 5, 2015) – This week, the Henry for Mayor campaign released its third TV ad of 2015, “For All Of Us.” The spot highlights some of Mayor Henry’s crucial investments in public safety: An 18% increase in public safety investment, the combination of city/county 911 operations, and the creation of the Gang & Violent Crimes Unit—all of which contributed to making Fort Wayne safe, with property crime down 17%, car thefts down 43%, and homicides down 50%.

 

 

The ad is running on Fort Wayne broadcast stations along with an investment in digital advertising on various new media outlets. Both previous advertisements continue to run, with “Like Mine” appearing on broadcast stations and “All Fixed” running on cable networks.
