More Democratic and left-wing campaigns should consider emulating Kat Abughazaleh’s approach: making mutual aid a big part of their campaign. theintercept.com/2025/12/26/k...

In addition to offering supplies while the office is open, the campaign also helps stock a community fridge available any time of day and hosts drives to collect specific supplies.

I can't tell you how much I love this - I always thought campaign offices should do constituent work and house food pantries "little libraries " etc Kat made that happen. Donate to her campaign here tinyurl.com/26qxtj2h she's 9th district (Evanston) #illinois theintercept.com/

My grandfather (z"l) was an IWW organizer in the 1910s. He took food to unemployed workers in bags labeled, "From the IWW Union." They paid rent. They did chores for injured non-union workers. ❤️ theintercept.com/2025/12/26/k...
