Handel announced the move on Twitter, asking supporters to "help us take back Georgia 6th district now!"

Her 90-second ad begins with a medley of quotes from Democratic women including Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, Rashida Tlaib, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Ilhan Omar. McBath is not mentioned.

"Imagine if we have leaders in Washington who worked for us. Leaders more interested in doing their jobs than being a celebrity," Handel says in the ad.

Handel lost to McBath in the 2018 election by 1 percent of the vote.
