Thank you to everyone who supported this campaign. Together we were able to do things never seen in American politics, to set a new standard from what we should expect from the people who try to represent us. What we built matters, regardless of the outcome. And the work isn’t over.

Abughamentum is REAL!!!! There are 5 hours til polls close and we’ve gotta run through the tape — and we can’t do that without you. Go to katforillinois.com/vote to make your voting plan today!

🚨 IT'S ELECTION DAY 🚨 This is it. Today decides everything. Let's make it count: Knock doors, make calls, talk to your friends, and make sure everyone you know in IL-09 makes their voice heard!

Heater’s just checking in to see if you’ve voted yet! katforillinois.com/vote

Deeply honored and grateful to have the support of Rep. Ilhan Omar, a leader who has never been afraid to put justice, humanity, and the truth ahead of political convenience. Her courage has helped blaze the path for so many of us.

🚨 1 DAY 🚨 Tomorrow is Election Day. Let’s finish strong. Phone bank, knock doors, or join our volunteer Discord to find out the most effective way to help us win!

“Kat is saying what those of us on the progressive side of the generation have been thinking all along – and does it in a way that resonates. She is trying to push the Democratic Party left, which, as she puts it, is actually pushing the party back to the center.” www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

CAMPAIGN UPDATE: 2 DAYS LEFT!!! 💥 Endorsed by Rep. Rashida Tlaib!! 💥 AIPAC getting desperate!! 💥 Doorknocking all over the district!! 💥 Phonebanking all afternoon!! 💥 Donate at katforillinois.com — we have to buy + print more literature bc we’ve had so many volunteers!!

Representative Tlaib’s endorsement means so much to me personally. She’s set a true example for what it means to be deeply rooted in transformative progressive values that never compromise. I hope to join her in 2027 as the only other currently elected Palestinian in Congress!

🚨 2 DAYS 🚨 Two days left. This is all hands on deck. Phone bank, knock doors, or join our volunteer Discord.

It's not that hard.

“If I’m an opp, I’ve really taken the most painful route for it,” she said. “But I’m not, which is why AIPAC is trying to cause progressive infighting, and trying to peel young people away from our campaign. Because they know we can win.” - Kat Abughazaleh www.cnn.com/2026/03/14/p...

🚨 3 DAYS 🚨 Three days. Every conversation counts now. Phone bank, knock doors, or join our volunteer Discord at the link in my bio.

All this week I've written about how here in IL, dark money and MAGA aligned PACs are spending absurd sums of money to prop up establishment corporate Dems while attacking progressive Dems who are actually willing to fight. MSNOW has the scoop on just how deep this goes: www.ms.now/news/kat-abu...

where’s my money 😔

Dark money groups are paying influencers to spread attacks about our campaign. Voters deserve to know who is trying to manipulate our election.

EXCLUSIVE: A dark money group is offering influencers $1,500 for posts attacking Chicago Democratic primary candidate @katmabu.bsky.social www.ms.now/news/kat-abu...

HOLY SHIT. A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election. Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

Horrified by reports of violence at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield. We are thinking of those impacted and the entire Jewish community. Everyone deserves to be safe and free to worship without fear. Anti-semitism and all forms of hate must be eradicated.

Now it makes sense why AIPAC just dropped over $1 million in attack ads & mailers against @katmabu.bsky.social. Kat's surging while AIPAC's candidate is floundering.

This is a two way race.

Abughamentum!!!

AIPAC IS DROPPING $1 MILLION AGAINST US SO HEATER IS ASKING YOU TO JOIN OUR LIVESTREAM IN AN HOUR!!! twitch.tv/katabughazaleh youtube.com/@katmabu

Do you want a leader or a follower representing you?

CAMPAIGN UPDATE: 7 DAYS TIL PRIMARY DAY!!! 💥 Catch me on Majority Report and Behind the Bastards! 💥 AIPAC released another ad about us yesterday! 💥 Donate BEFORE March 13! 💥 We’ve got volunteer opportunities every single day for both local and remote folks!

Just over one week left, and we're doubling down on knocking doors and calling our neighbors! Here's where you can plug in this week:

This is an escalation by DHS. Six US Citizens and permanent residents are now home after being held over 30 hours at O’Hare, transferred to Broadview, and moved across state lines. Community pressure got them home. So many more do not have that support.

10 Days

We don’t need talkers right now. We need fighters. And no matter how many times they knock me down, I’ll get back up and fight with you. Every. Single. Time.

UPDATE: Sunny and the others detained are now safe at home. But we’re demanding answers about their illegal detention and transfer across state lines. Join Sunny Naqvi and community leaders tomorrow as she shares her story. - Broadview Facility, 1930 Beach St
 - March 8 • 2 PM

UPDATE: Sunny, a U.S. citizen, is on her way home after being shipped across state lines overnight. How the hell did this happen? Press conference tomorrow at Broadview, where we will hear Sunny’s side of the story. More details soon.

I just left a concert fundraising for the National Immigrant Justice Center to head to Broadview. Here’s why:

As Trump continues to escalate his abuse of power and blatant disregard of the constitution, we demand all of the disappeared to be released and immediate accountability.

If true, Sunny was illegally detained along with several other fellow travelers - both citizens and permanent residents - whose whereabouts are also unknown. Where are they? Why won’t CBP answer?

We are currently outside the ICE Broadview concentration camp where Sunny Naqvi’s family believes her to be held after being detained in O’Hare by federal authorities.

We don't need to give the military any more money. Especially for an illegal war in Israel. We can spend that money on housing, health care, education, and infrastructure. We don't have to settle.

With 12 days left, every vote counts. You can vote at any early voting location in the county where you’re registered. Here are the closest ones across IL-09:

This was filmed October 3, 2025. Noem is finally out. Good. Now let’s make sure she’s prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

It is an absolute non-starter to provide any funding for another forever war. Congress has already appropriated a trillion dollars for military spending and now you want more? With some Senate democrats already hedging, where does the rest of Dem leadership stand?

Look what I did today @katmabu.bsky.social

Far be it from me to advise on how effective an attack ad is, but Kat literally talked about being raised Republican and then becoming progressive in her comic book mailers

Thank you to everyone who joined our canvass launch in Skokie this morning!!! We literally had too many people to fit in a single frame. And a special shoutout to our friends at Common Power who flew in from all over the country to help us knock doors in the cold!!!

Host: "Miss Abughazaleh, do you support a vote to attack Iran." Kat Abughazaleh: "Absolutely not.... I absolutely support the people fighting for a democracy there, fighting for free speech, but this administration doesn't give a dam about them.

A new Super PAC, "Chicago Progressive Partnership," just jumped into #IL09, opposing Kat Abughazaleh. Filings show they’re using the same vendors as AIPAC.

But to be serious, AIPAC is dropping serious money against us this week. Help us beat AIPAC and counter their smear campaign with any small dollar contribution (please): secure.actblue.com/donate/abu-b...

LEAKED: First attack ad against Kat Abughazaleh
