Congressional Dems are kicking off a big effort to turn around their plummeting approval rating in polls.

The three Democratic committees have teamed up to launch a new TV ad -- to air on national cable channels during Congressional recess -- touting the achievements of the new Congress and its efforts to take on George Bush to "end a war gone wrong":

The ad is part of a "Month of Action on Iraq" that will unfold as members of Congress head back to their districts and will include ads "targeting Republicans in their home states and districts, for their support of the failed President's Iraq policy," a statement reads. Text of the ad in the jump.

The ad's text:

It's a pay raise for Americans working for minimum wage.

It's coverage for kids whose families are uninsured.

It's an historic increase in health benefits for veterans returning from Iraq.

It's taking on George Bush to end a war gone wrong.

It's Democrats taking the country in a new direction.

And there is more work to be done.

America wants change. Tell George Bush it's time to listen.
