A historic night with @abdulelsayed.bsky.social’s victory. With Abdul, @melatkirosco.bsky.social, Mayor Mamdani, and more, Black and Brown children, and those of minority faith, are seeing America reject Trump’s exclusionary rhetoric on what it means to be American. They too can achieve anything.

@rokhanna.bsky.social is leading on the tough progressive issues of our time—fighting for Medicare for All, building a better planet and standing up for working families. I'm grateful for his endorsement and look forward to our continued partnership.
In the occupied West Bank, 14 year-old Aws al-Nasaan was killed in a school shooting. Then, the Israeli army fired tear gas at students. His principal told me the police never even talked to anyone at the school. They have no reason to believe the killer was brought to justice.
Big Tech wants AI to boost their profits. We want a worker-first agenda for AI. Join me with Carlos Espina, SEIU 1107, @culinary226.bsky.social, @votolatino.bsky.social, Teamsters, Make the Road Action, & PLANevada in Las Vegas for a town hall on AI, automation, and how to put human beings first.
The Trump Administration is sending billions to Amazon, Apple, Walmart, and other big corporations to refund them for Trump’s tariffs. American households were estimated to lose over $1,000 to tariff price hikes. Here's an idea: refund working families before big business.
Democrats must be bold enough to call out those who have shafted the working class, those who pushed us into a war with Iran, and the Epstein class. We will not have transformational change without the political courage to name names.
Blaming Mayor Mamdani’s grocery stores in food deserts for the struggle of working class New Yorkers is absurd. What about the war in Iran that is driving food prices up and the Trump tax breaks to billionaires that have left less money in the pockets of working class New Yorkers?
I shared on Fox that I am for Economic Patriotism with a national mission to build the economy of the future that delivers prosperity for every American in every community—not to enrich a few billionaires in a few places. America's next New Deal! www.foxnews.com/video/640263...

At our town hall in Johnstown, Trump voters, independents, & Democrats sat down for a respectful dialogue. There was disagreement on immigration and crime. What we agreed on was a billionaire tax, fixing our broken healthcare system & bringing manufacturing jobs back to America.
Built in 1852, Cambria Iron Works in Johnstown is one of the oldest steel plants. It become Bethlehem Steel in 1923. After the mills closed in 1992, over 12,000 workers lost their jobs.
Yesterday, I met with workers in Erie. Trump told them he would make Erie a manufacturing superpower and bring them sand to prevent erosion from the Lake. The record -- no manufacturing jobs, no sand. Erie has lost manufacturing jobs and Trump has refused to fund the sand they need.
My good friend @rokhanna.bsky.social stopped by Western PA. So we introduced him to the hardest working nurses, students, union members, organizers, and democratic leaders in the country. I’ll always be proud to be from here and show off #PA17 🇺🇸
The Senate has unanimously agreed that Ghislaine Maxwell should not be allowed a presidential pardon. We must block Trump’s appointment of Todd Blanche as Attorney General. He will obstruct justice for survivors & see to it that the Epstein class is not held accountable. thehill.com/homenews/sen...
Senate unanimously agrees to oppose pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell
The Senate unanimously agreed Wednesday that Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted sex offender and collaborator of Jeffrey Epstein, should not be allowed a presidential pardon or clemency of any kind. Th…

This week, PA workers have been telling me we must create more jobs for our communities. Join me in Linwood this Saturday 8/1 to talk about building an economy that puts workers first in an AI era- from truck drivers to homecare workers & beyond. Sign up to join us: www.mobilize.us/rokhanna/eve...
Elected officials should not use campaign contributions to fight sexual misconduct allegations. Now more than ever, people are demanding transparency from our leaders. I am working across the aisle with Rep. Anna Paulina Luna to ensure we obtain it. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I stood on the picket line with frontline healthcare workers from Mount Nittany Medical Center to fight for a fair contract in which wages keep up with inflation. It is cruel that the hospital has taken away workers' health insurance to punish them for striking.
American families are paying $3500 more a year because of Trump’s war in Iran, his blanket tariffs, and his tax breaks for the wealthy. We need Democrats back in power.
Massie would use the $60 billion wasted on Iran to pay down the national debt. I would use it to provide free childcare. Americans don't want foreign wars.
This week, I will be touring PA to meet with workers and communities and lay out a plan for a New Economic Patriotism. We need the future economy working not just for a few, but for all of us. For our first stop, I visited Philadelphia to discuss a New Deal for the 21st century. Thread below:
In memory of Awdah Hathaleen, a father, educator, and community leader.
We need to put human beings over tech billionaires. We need a worker first AI agenda. Join me in Linwood, PA to lay out a plan for making AI work for us. Sign up: www.mobilize.us/rokhanna/eve...
The village of Umm al-Khair is surrounded on all sides by settlements. Last year, Awdah Hathaleen was shot dead in broad daylight by extremist settler Yinon Levy. Biden had sanctioned him. Trump lifted the sanctions. We need to sanction violent settlers & make them face justice.
I was born in Bucks County. My parents still live there. Next week, just after our 250th anniversary, I'm coming home. Join me for the Made in PA: New Economic Patriotism Tour as we hear from workers & communities about building an economy that works for everyone. RSVP: www.mobilize.us/rokhanna/
Decades ago, Hisham Sharabati was shot by Israeli forces as a journalist. In Hebron, he showed me how extremist settlers throw rotten vegetables, metal parts, urine, and acid at shopkeepers living on a street below them.
Rep. Thomas Massie and I are leading the fight against military integration with Israel. Congress was denied a vote on an amendment to stop it. Now we will fight to strip this provision in the conference between the House and Senate.
Join me in Philadelphia on July 28 to reflect on our 250th anniversary and how we build a new America. I was born in Bucks County during our bicentennial, and I believe it is time for a new moral direction true to our founding ideals. Sign up: libwww.freelibrary.org/calendar/eve...

In communities like Turmus’ayya, illegal settlers attack American citizens with American weapons paid for by American tax dollars. Palestinians who live there have their houses, cars, and trees burned by settlers directly backed by the Israeli state. How can we support this?
Amer Rabee was a 14 year-old American boy from New Jersey. But to the IDF, he was a terrorist. He was accused of throwing rocks, which should not come with a death sentence. Listen to his father, Mohammed, wiping away tears, sharing how they still have Amer's bedroom unchanged.
I’m voting yes on Rep. Thomas Massie’s amendment to zero out all aid to Israel, including aid for offensive and defensive weapons like the Iron Dome. I cannot vote for aid to a country that committed genocide and has used tax dollars to detain Americans like me.
What happened to me in the West Bank was an outrage. But it is nothing compared to what Palestinians face every day. It is time to share their stories that American politics have silenced and ignored. This is our first video about Palestinians we met.
