Ro Khanna

In August 2019, when Bernie was here, over 350 turned out to see him.

Tonight, about 600 people turned out to join us at our town hall in Las Vegas.

The progressive movement that Bernie seeded only grows stronger.

Rep. Khanna seeks recognition of Palestinian state After his draft letter was leaked, Rep. Ro Khanna says he has already gathered 10 signatures of members of Congress beside his own.

I will not be intimidated. You don't know me or my grandfather.

"Khanna...whose district has significant Israeli Americans.. could face significant backlash from the Bay Area Jewish community...Ro Khanna has disappointed many,"' warned Tali Kilma.

Rep. Khanna, progressives push for U.S. recognition of Palestinian state A letter signed by prominent House progressives said such a state ‘will need to fully recognize Israel’ and guarantee ‘the disarmament of and relinquishing of power by Hamas’

Someone leaked our effort to try to sabotage it. Sad. It won't work.

Recognizing a Palestinian state is an idea whose time has come. The response of my colleagues has been overwhelming. We will build support and release prior to the UN convening.

A man-made starvation in Gaza. Crushing healthcare costs. New college grads struggling to get employment.

This is not the most pressing issue facing our country.

We need a rebirth of the Democratic party. We need to be a new populist party. That is why I am pushing so hard for the full release of the Epstein files. The question is: whose side are you on?

I look forward to working with President Sheinbaum for years to come.

Democrats could learn from Sheinbaum. She doesn't hide from the media. She speaks to the press every morning. She is focused on a Mexico Plan for growth, jobs, and the security of her country. She spoke out clearly on Gaza and human rights.

We spoke about the need for worker-centered policies. This means building manufacturing capacity. It means increasing the minimum wage. It means expanding Social Security. It means attracting investment for new jobs and preparing people for the AI economy.

Rep. Don Bacon and I are committed to helping resolve the trade dispute. The tomato tariffs are irrational and hurting Sinaloa. If we hurt Mexican tomato farmers, we are helping cartels in that state. Plus, we are hurting $8 billion in American retail revenue on tomatoes and consumers.

We spoke about the need for a rational immigration policy. She was committed to policies that would integrate migrants into Mexico's economy. We need to have legalization for those Mexican immigrants who are here working hard and paying taxes.

We spoke about the importance of investment in security. She has a zero-tolerance policy for the cartels and is going after them aggressively.

Thread: I had the honor of meeting President Sheinbaum for 30 minutes. She was extremely impressive. I share her commitment to a progressive politics that is pro-jobs, pro-wage, and pro-innovation. Sheinbaum gets the importance of AI and digitization for Mexico.

It seems like Trump, like George W, wants to privatize social security. If they win again in 2026, there is no doubt they will go for it. Democrats must win back the House in 2026 to save social security.

President Claudia Sheinbaum is the most consequential progressive world leader. Look forward to mtg today. I share your belief that hard-working Mexican immigrants in the US need the chance to work legally-- helping both of our nations. I also support social investments for our working class.

This is the time to vocally support @ramirez.house.gov Stop the Bombs Act. No Democrat who wants to lead our party should be for providing Netanyahu with offensive weapons while he is complicit in a mass man-made starvation. I am proud to join as a co sponsor.

Democrats need a rebirth & rejection of the status quo. More than words. It means speaking out on the starvation in Gaza. It means M4A. It means banning Super Pacs. It means no to the transactional politics that screwed Bernie in 2020. It means the full release of Epstein files.

A candid hour long conversation with Mexican Foreign Secretary de la Fuente. We need to repeal high tariffs on tomatoes & vegetables, hurting our consumers & the Mexican economy.

Rep. Don Bacon & I enjoyed Mexican flag shots after a productive meeting today with Mexican Foreign Secretary de la Fuente on lowering tariffs on tomatoes, defense cooperation & a rational immigration policy. We look forward to our meeting with Claudia Sheinbaum, a great leader!

This is about trust in government.

If we want to have bold government initiatives like a 21st century Marshall Plan for America or Medicare for All, we need people to believe that government works for them, not the rich and powerful.

Today I’m calling clearly and simply: Mr. Netanyahu, let in the food.

Mr. Netanyahu, stop blocking humanitarian aid and causing a man-made starvation in Gaza.

The times of the United States providing you a blank check are over.

I am sick of the tired platitude that for an ally like Israel we must not disagree publicly or in the media.

Not when there is mass starvation.

This is the time for every American to speak up publicly.

PM Netanyahu, let in the food, medicine & aid.

We must not be complicit.

Opinion | Republicans are adding health care taxes — but not on the rich It’s not too late for Congress to extend existing tax breaks for working families.

Republicans increased taxes on the working class by repealing the credits for millions who get insurance from the ACA exchanges. Gene Sperling shows that they hiked premiums for working class Americans.

Medicare for All is popular in the South. Take a look for yourself.

Republicans in Congress chose to cut working-class Americans' Medicaid benefits to give the ultra-wealthy another tax break.

I’m hosting two town halls in Nevada and one in Georgia to talk to you about what these cuts really mean and how we can win back the House and the Senate in 2026.

@jonathanjackson.house.gov: "We're here today to inform you, to let you know, because no town halls were taking place, we weren't able to get hearings in Washington DC on one big bill. There's no record of this... We need to make sure the doors of democracy are open."

Medicare for All is not just moral, it makes economic sense.

This is a Congress that wants to have bloated defense budgets for overseas wars and tax breaks for billionaires. What we need is a government that is going to tax wealth and make sure we are investing in our public schools and healthcare here at home.

People are tired of politicians who know how to speak in fancy ways and may sound charismatic but don't actually have plans to improve their lives.
