I’ve gotten a lot of questions about the “equal time rule,” so here’s the deal. What do you do with millions in corporate💰 besides luxury hotels and dinners? You pour it into ads to skip the hard work of actually meeting people in the community.

My opponent, Richard Neal, is out here dropping $64k on 4-star hotels while we have a housing crisis, and $18k on fancy dinners at a time when people can’t afford food.

Meanwhile, we are out here in the community everyday showing how it should be done.

It’s simple. People want fighters in Congress. They want someone who shows up for them and appreciates them. That’s why I’m doing this, and I hope you’ll join this movement to bring about the change MA-01 has needed for so long.

Waited to see how the latest Epstein files release would unfold, and once again it shows how the powerful dodge any real accountability.

Spent the morning in Easthampton at the weekly standout and also got some signatures to get on the ballot!

Double date! Spending Valentine’s Day with the love of my life and my “roommates” 😅 My in-laws do so much for us, so it’s nice to take them out and treat them for a change. Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! ♥️

A little valentine for everyone from Stockbridge to Springfield to Sturbridge! ♥️

We had over 60 people at ArcPoint sign to get me on the ballot last night. This has been a different campaign from the get go. Rather than raise millions and plaster myself on TV and the radio, I’m in the community talking to people face to face, and showing up when they need it.

Stop by tonight from 5 to 7 PM at ArcPoint Brewing and help us get on the ballot! You’ll need to be a registered Democrat or unenrolled, but we can help you register to vote on the spot or switch to unenrolled if you’re currently Republican, my friends have! Have a beer and get stuff done 🍻 🖊️ 📋

My opponent, Richard Neal, is benefitting from a broken campaign finance system that he has no interest in reforming. Join our campaign and we will fight for these reforms:

🔄 Reverse Citizens United 🧑‍⚖️
🛑 Ban Congressional Stock 📉
🙅‍♂️ Oppose Corporate PAC💰
“When Citizens United was decided in 2010, billionaires had spent $18 million on the 2000 election, $13M 2004 and $16M in 2008. Then came the deluge. In 2012 it was $231M, and nearly doubled again in next three election cycles —to $682M in 2016, $1.2 billion in 2020 and $2.6 billion in 2024.” Gift:

Hey MA-01, don't let corporate money buy your vote.
@jeromiewhalen.bsky.social
doesn't take corporate cash and so he will not be beholden to them.

He's one of our Courage Candidates.
My opponent Richard Neal has raised over $1.8 million between his committee and PACs, and of that less than $1,000 came from less than 10 people in individuals small contributions. Meanwhile, we raised over $43,000 from over 1,200 from people like you.

Yesterday I went to the state office and pulled the papers to get my name on the ballot for the Sep. 1 primary. I showed up as early as I could, and from that moment, our team organized dozens of people across the district to collect signatures in the bitter cold.

My team stayed up late last night, then woke up to negative wind chills and still were determined to knock doors in Westfield. I called everyone to say that if they were not up for it, they should stay home. Before I could even finish the sentence, they told me, “I’ll be there.”

This is my home.

Whalen lives and teaches in these communities. He fights for the people here.

Neal, who he is looking to replace, was elected to his seat in 1989.

His relationship with corporate donors is questionable.

We need generational change.

A tale of two candidates in #MA-01. The kicker is he’s raised TEN TIMES our campaign over the last year and LITERALLY 99.9% came from corporate PACs and large donors. Hit us up with a monthly $5, $10, $25, or $50 and let’s show corporate Dems what’s up!
