From Facebook:
Today we’re introducing the Ad Archive Report for ads in the US related to politics and issues of national importance. It’s available to anyone regardless of whether you’re a Facebook user or not.
This report will help you more easily find information such as the total number of ads and spend in the archive; searchable tables to find exact spend by advertiser; as well as top keywords searched. It will also provide the Page name; “Paid for by” disclaimer; total number of ads from a particular advertiser; and a link to those ads in the archive.
The report is updated weekly and can be accessed through the home page of the Archive. It will be downloadable soon.

You can start your own search in the Ad Archive, which houses ads for up to seven years and is also now accessible to anyone.
We’re also encouraging deeper analysis of the Ad Archive by offering an API. Please fill out the form if you’re interested, and we’ll reach out after this initial test with a few groups of academics, publishers and researchers.
