President Obama's campaign unveiled a new Spanish-language television ad Wednesday, slamming GOP
opponent Mitt Romney on his education and financial aid policies.

"President Romney ... What would that mean? For our kids, a steeper climb to college," says a
narrator in Spanish. "Up to 2 million Hispanic students could see their Pell grants cut by almost a
thousand dollars. Thousands more would lose their federal work study. And under his plan, there
would be less funds for community colleges," the voice-over continues. "Register today to make sure
Romney doesn’t shut these doors."

The television ad, titled "El Candado," was released alongside a similar radio spot that touts Obama
for "investing" in education and working to prevent teacher layoffs.

Both ads will be broadcast in the key swing states of Colorado, Florida, Nevada, Ohio and Virginia.
