This is Congressman Ro Khanna.
FIRST: I stood up for working people and said the wealthiest few Americans should pay a modest 1% tax to help fund healthcare, igniting primary threats from ultra-wealthy elites in California.
NOW: AIPAC is attacking me for demanding no war without Congressional authorization, even though I have condemned Iran's shooting of unarmed protestors.
I’m proud to work alongside the grassroots leaders at the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, who have been steadfast in demanding the Democratic Party refuse to compromise pro-worker values and the need for big, structural change to mollify the super-rich.
Let’s be clear about what this really is: an attempt to intimidate me, silence me, and punish anyone who refuses to bow down to super PACs.
I’m under attack because I don’t take PAC money. I don’t take lobbyist money. I don’t take corporate checks—not now, not ever. And that terrifies the establishment because it means I can’t be bought.
If you want leaders who tell the truth and put the needs of working Americans first, not toe the line for corporate donors, then I need your help right now to fight back.
Will you rush $10 or more to show that our movement cannot be intimidated?

– Ro Khanna
