Ad targeting Scott Walker says college graduates are ‘drowning’ in student debt

The online ad, from liberal advocacy groups One Wisconsin Now, Wisconsin Jobs Now and the Agenda Project Action Fund, depicts a person drowning in open water while “Pomp and Circumstance” plays, an image the groups say is meant to symbolize the plight of student loan borrowers. At the end of the ad, a mortarboard washes ashore.”Americans are drowning in student debt,” the ad says.
