My name is Josh Thomas.
I led Marines in Afghanistan to protect our freedoms.
Now, I won’t let MAGA anti-choice extremists like John Stirrup take away freedoms here at home.
Will you support my campaign and help protect reproductive rights in Virginia?
John Stirrup, a Republican candidate running for the House of Delegates in a purple Northern Virginia district and endorsed by Gov. Glenn Youngkin in the primary, has been recorded saying he would support a “100 percent ban” on abortion in the state.

I’m Josh Thomas, the Democratic candidate running against anti-choice extremist John Stirrup who wants a FULL abortion ban in Virginia.
Can you please retweet this to help me reach 1,000 followers so we can spread the word and win in November and protect reproductive freedom?

I'm running for Delegate to lower the cost of living, fully fund education, and protect the rights of all Virginians.
My opponent made it clear, he's running for Delegate to ban abortion 100%, with NO exceptions for rape, incest, or to save the life of the mother.
💻NEW AD: We're launching a six figure digital ad buy in battleground districts to hold House Republicans accountable for their extreme anti-abortion agenda.
Southern states have passed dangerous bans & MAGA Republicans want Virginia to be next.

Thank you
@axios
for reinforcing what the country should already know: November 2023 is Virginia’s chance to stand up for reproductive freedom.
I have the most extreme anti-abortion opponent in the Commonwealth and we’re fighting hard to stop him.
Virginia is the lone southern state that hasn't banned or restricted abortion since SCOTUS overturned Roe.
Now Democrats are mobilizing for what they widely view as the next major referendum on abortion rights: this fall's state legislature elections.
