Republican attorneys general organizations have reserved $11 million in television advertising time for attorney general contests in five states ahead of the November 2026 elections. The Republican Attorneys General Association and affiliated groups made the initial ad purchases in Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Georgia and Kansas.
The groups stated that the advertisements will emphasize public safety, border security and law enforcement. Officials described the effort as an attempt to place Democratic candidates on the defensive in competitive statewide races.
Republican attorneys general previously filed lawsuits against several Biden administration policies, including student loan forgiveness measures and changes to Title IX regulations. Courts issued rulings that blocked or delayed portions of those policies.
The same officials said multistate coalitions allow attorneys general to respond quickly to federal actions by filing suit. A Republican attorney general candidate in Michigan said voters want to feel safe in their communities and accused some Democratic prosecutors of declining to enforce certain laws.
In Georgia, Republican messaging targets the Democratic nominee's vote against a state immigration enforcement measure. Fox News Digital has contacted the Democratic Attorneys General Association for comment.
