Abughazaleh announced she will help campaigns "integrate mutual aid and direct action into their races," and she plans to help races across the country, "especially in the Midwest." Abughazaleh said she is working with partners to fund the project and plans to expand it to help other candidates.
"But Kat, you lost your race. How could you even say that this model could win races?' Well I'm so glad you asked. We came in a very close second in a field of 15, beating out AIPAC and multiple established local politicians, and we did it with zero outside money," Abughazaleh said. "We brought in more first-time Gen Z donors than the DSCC [Democratic Senate Campaign Committee] the DCC [Democratic Congressional Committee], [Senate Minority Leader Chuck] Schumer, [House Minority Leader Hakeem] Jeffries and my next two primary opponents combined."
Abughazaleh raised an astonishing $3.3 million in an anti-establishment primary race, which included avoiding newspaper and Democratic Party endorsements and using livestream events to solicit small-donor donations instead of begging big-time donors for cash. She also used that time to tell voters about her platform, which included universal health care, protections against price-gouging, more housing with federal incentives, climate action
— and removing lead pipes.
Abughazaleh said the campaign's framework for mutual aid - opening up her Rogers Park campaign office as a place for people to come for food, clothing and essential needs like baby formula — "was the No. 1 persuader to undecided voters."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ats4shmeia7i7ildqm3denmd/bafkreibjbuxuvpyveyxxgtkad6g3xnftmlarpd2xr3aosq3dbd2snuotea)

I know white men understand what being equitable is because golf handicaps exist.
I think about this A LOT.

They also suddenly understand consent if you bring up pegging.
