EU-US Forum Announces Six-Figure Paid Media Campaign in Germany, the Netherlands, and Italy to Demand Change in the European Union as Group’s Advertising Spending in Europe Swells to $750,000

Billboards, Mobile Billboards, and 2D Projections on Famous Architecture Blast EU Policies on Immigration, Free Speech, Taxes, and Regulation

WASHINGTON —The EU-US Forum,  a nonprofit organization that shines a light on the harmful policies coming out of the EU in order to stop them from spreading to the US, today launched a six-figure paid media campaign urging citizens to demand change to European Union policies on free speech, immigration, taxes, and regulation. The campaign will run across EU member states Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands from Monday, June 3 to Wednesday, June 5.The ad media campaign includes billboards, mobile billboard trucks, and 2D projections on famous architecture in Amsterdam, Berlin, and Rome. 

This is the fifth ad campaign the EU-US Forum has run in Europe, bringing its total ad spending to over $750,000 there since March. 

The initiative comes after new polling released last week showed EU citizens are becoming increasingly concerned with illegal immigration, the cost of living, high taxes, excessive regulations, and government censorship. The EU-US Forum/Tyson Group polling results suggest EU citizens are increasingly looking for conservative policy solutions.

Messages of the ads include:

    • “Too many taxes. Too much environmental regulation. Free Germany from these economic shackles. Demand change at the EU”
    • “EU immigration policies are making you less safe”
    • “Demand free speech. Demand change at the EU.”

BACKGROUND:

  • The EU-US Forum previously launched a $250,000 paid media campaign in Rome, Italy that took aim at the far-left policy agenda of the EU. The ads ran on billboards in train stations, in key Italian newspapers, on social media platforms, and in the sky via airplane in Rome and read:
    •  “EU Policies Are Putting Western Civilization at Risk…Le politiche EU stanno mettendo a rischio la Civiltà occidentale”
    •   “EU Immigration Policies Are Making You Less Safe…Le politiche EU sull’immigrazione, ti stanno rendendo meno sicuro”
  • The paid media campaign in Italy also coincided with the organization’s inaugural event in Rome with American influencers, policy leaders, and media personalities who joined with European conservative policy leaders for a discussion about the danger of the far-Left policies emerging from the EU and how they can work together to fight back.
  • The EU-US forum also deployed paid media campaigns in Hungary, the Netherlands, and Germany earlier this spring. 
  • The EU-US Forum is led by multiple former Trump administration officials. Matt Mowers, former Senior White House Advisor at the U.S. Department of State, serves as the Founding Board Member and Joseph Grogan, former Director of the White House Domestic Policy Council serves as a Senior Advisor.
