The investing and philanthropic arm of Laurene Powell Jobs is purchasing what is believed to be its first-ever political ads on TV, according to advertising placement records seen by Recode.

Emerson Collective, Powell Jobs’s vehicle for activism and investments, will begin a flight of spots on Wednesday in the television markets of Denver, Colo.; Louisville, Ky.; Raleigh, N.C.; Las Vegas, Nev.; and Milwaukee, Wis., according to the records. The 30-second spots will run until next Tuesday, and only tens of thousands of dollars of ad spending appear to be behind them. They were placed by Democratic media firm GMMB.
