Patrick Roath
@patrickroath
Democrat for Congress in MA-08. Equal parts voting rights activist and gardener. Formerly: Common Cause MA, Deval Patrick. Running to take on the status quo.
We are incredibly proud to work with Chinese Progressive Political Action to build community and organize Quincy ahead of September 1!
After 25 years and $2 million from corporate PACs, Congressman Lynch has lost touch with our district. He’s the last democrat left who voted against the ACA. He voted to create, fund, expand, and thank ICE. In just 25 days, we can defeat him. Join us: patrickroath.com
Such an incredible session at Linden Ponds today! Thank you to the energized, joyful, and impressive crew who came to hear from me!
Just under a month to go and we are OUT THERE working it this weekend across this amazing district!! Thank you all our volunteers!
Very proud to join the picket today at Boston Medical Center to fight for a fair contract with MNA, SEIU 1199 & SEIU CIR!
Big news in our race -- we finally have a candidate forum that Rep. Lynch has agreed to come to! Come join us on August 13 in Weymouth. We still need a debate in this race. This forum will be great, but there's no candidate interaction permitted.

Congressman Lynch says his campaign “has never been powered by big money.” Nothing could be further from the truth.
This moment requires urgency and a conviction that we can actually change things - housing we can afford, childcare for everyone, and putting our healthcare over profits. I’m Patrick Roath, and I’m challenging 25-year incumbent Rep. Stephen Lynch in the democratic primary on September 1st.
Had an amazing day of door knocking out in Quincy and West Roxbury with huge crews of volunteers. Thanks to everyone who showed up and got the word out!
46 days to Election Day and we've got the momentum, but we need your help! Join us this weekend at one of of our canvasses and help us beat a 25-year incumbent. Knocking doors is easy, fun, and the best way to connect with voters. Click here to sign up: luma.com/patrickroath
Great to see the @washingtonpost.com covering our race! 50 days to go!!!! www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Keeping up the pace with a packed few days of campaigning! Hingham, Stoughton, Roslindale, Westwood, Norwood, Milton, and Brockton. Since Thursday. Huge thanks to everyone who came out to knock doors!
I am so proud to roll out our next slate of endorsers from across the district! We are growing our grassroots coalition and adding to the incredible team powering us to victory on September 1. Come join us!
In 2013, when Congressman Lynch ran for the U.S. Senate, he argued that primary debates were essential because "debates are good for democracy." I agree. That's why I'm inviting Congressman Lynch to join me on the debate stage so 8th district voters can hear from both candidates.
You can't claim to be fighting MAGA Republicans while repeatedly voting with them. Rep. Lynch has shown he can't be trusted to do even the bare minimum.
Tune into Boston Public Radio on GBH this morning to catch a live conversation with me!! www.youtube.com/live/8KVpjnw...
Wishing everybody a happy, fun, and safe holiday weekend! Let’s celebrate America’s 250th birthday while remembering that the promise of our country is far from fulfilled. Happy 4th! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
The politics of “wait your turn” are over. I’m Patrick Roath. Boston is ready for a congressman who will stand up to the status quo and fight. With your help, we can win this. Join us at patrickroath.com
Today I'm proud to announce endorsements from five Boston elected officials -- our first State Legislators and Boston City Councilors of the campaign! These leaders set the example for what elected officials should do--show up, listen, and fight. I'll do the same in congress
Some coverage this week of our opponent’s ongoing efforts to dodge any kind of debate or forum. I think my quote says it all. www.axios.com/local/boston...
Are you a 25-year incumbent in Congress looking to avoid accountability? Well we've got just the thing for you. Follow our playbook to have a fake "town hall" and successfully avoid your constituents
Campaign office officially open! 25+ canvassers, over 1,000 doors knocked across Ward 13 today. Thank you to everybody who came out to support. Want to come by our office or knock doors with us? Sign up at luma.com/patrickroath
Today is a day of celebration, joy, and remembrance. Though we can't forget that there is still much work to be done to achieve the future of freedom, opportunity, and equality that so many have struggled and sacrificed for. Happy Juneteenth to all!
🚨NEW: Today I'm honored to announce that AFT-Massachusetts has endorsed our campaign! We need leaders who will not only fight against Trump, but who will also fight for public education and protect teachers & students. I'm grateful to have AFT-MA with me in this fight.
I am thrilled to accept the endorsement of the Boston Ward 5 Democrats! The Ward 5 Dems are an institution and a powerhouse — it’s a profound honor to add them to our growing grassroots coalition pushing for change across this district. Onwards!!
It was great talking with Dr. John Kenneth White for his column today in The Hill about generational change in the Democratic Party. Check it out! thehill.com/opinion/camp...
Knocking on doors and marching in the Flag Day Parade in Dedham yesterday was the perfect antidote to the disgusting spectacle that took place at the White House. It’s so heartening to see so many people of all ages who are proud of their country and excited to make it better!
