TV ads in SW Ohio telling viewers to call their Senators, [View all]

tell Senators Portman & Brown to vote for Trump cabinet nominees.

Sessions was one cabinet nominee mentioned; not sure if the other was DeVos or Tillerson. -(poor memory- it was a few days ago.
Have any other Ohioans or residents of other states seen these ads?
Have other Cabinet nominees been mentioned in similar ads?
