Alaskans need someone who cares more about bringing down costs than protecting a rapist," the ad claims. The legislation, which became law in November 2025, requires the Justice Department to release records related to Epstein, with some protections to conceal the identity of his victims. HMP has spent $543,300 on the ad campaign, according to FEC records. But the group has also targeted races in a number of other battleground states , spending $ 480,000 in Iowa’s Second Congressional District, $ 2.06 million in Pennsylvania’s 1st District, $550,150 in Arizona’s 2nd District and $628,000 in Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional Distri…
