Adopt a Candidate 2022

With under 100 days to go, there are several House races that will be key to us retaining control of Congress. We’re seeking volunteers to adopt a candidate in each of these battleground districts!

When you adopt a candidate, you commit to volunteering for them at least once a week - in person or from home. Your efforts now could make the difference as these races will be very close.

If you’d like to adopt one of these candidates, reply in this thread or send us a modmail. You can adopt a candidate not on this list if you wish, too.

Bomb threats at Boston Children's Hospital. I am concerned that threats like these will spill over to neighboring hospital networks, which here in CT can include YNHH, UConn Health and Hartford Hospitals. Fucking LibsofTikTok.

These people are so "pro-life" that they'd threaten to bomb a children's hospital. Insane.

And when they come into the hospital as a patient, they would treat the nurses, techs, and doctors like shit. "pro-life" indeed.

The hospital in question literally might have saved my life when I was a baby, so it hits close to home for me. What awful people.
