As the two year anniversary of President Barack Obama’s health care law approaches, the already-popular object of Republican scorn looks to become even more prominent on the campaign trail and in political ads.

The law, which will be challenged at the U.S. Supreme Court in oral arguments later this month, was signed March 23, 2010, and the Republican National Committee said Monday they were using the occasion to aggressively “highlight the failed promise of one of the president’s signature accomplishments,” according to RNC spokeswoman Kirsten Kukowski.

That effort will entail television ads on national cable airing in Washington, as well as ads running in cities Obama will visit on upcoming tour promoting American energy – Boulder City, Nevada; Carlsbad, New Mexico and Columbus, Ohio. All three states are considered battlegrounds in November’s general election.

The RNC will also hit Obama’s health law in ads in the election battlegrounds Pennsylvania and Virginia, states RNC Chairman Reince Priebus will visit to hold voter and press events later in March.

Online, the RNC said they would hammer the law with Google and banner ads targeted to voters in battleground states.

The effort will highlight what the RNC says are the negative effects of Obama’s health law: increased costs for families and small businesses, and loss of coverage for millions of Americans.
