Starting today, Evelyn Rodriguez will appear in a new campaign ad for Seaford Congressman Peter King.
The ad features Rodriguez talking about her last conversation with her daughter, before she was allegedly killed by MS-13 in 2016.
Congressman King says the ad was supposed to debut last Monday, but was pulled after Rodriguez was killed.
However, the Congressman tells News 12 the ad will play at her family's request.
Rodriguez was a strong advocate against MS-13.
