Saikat for Congress

Working on solutions as big as the problems we face.

In addition to Connie Chan in SF, these are candidates I am supporting across the country, and they deserve your support too! Imagine if we got a bloc of progressives this large elected. Chris Rabb Claire Valdez Darializa Avila Chevalier Melat Kiros Cori Bush Analilia Mejia Brian Poindexter

I'm proud to back Connie Chan for Congress to represent San Francisco and plan to do everything I can to help her win. She is the only candidate in this race who takes no corporate money, who supports a wealth tax on billionaires, and who will vote to end all military aid to Israel.

A lot of Democrats talk about fighting Trump. Many tweet out against him, post memes, or call him names. But Thomas Massie & my Epstein Transparency Act is by far the most effective action in taking Trump on and breaking his coalition since he walked down the escalator. Even JD Vance admits that.

The campaign has ended, but the mission remains. We must wrest control of our country away from the corporations and back into the hands of people is still ahead of us. And the only force capable of doing that is a movement of people unlike any we have seen in generations.

No matter what the result is tonight, I’m so proud of what we’ve built together. Being a part of a team like this is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I’m never going to forget it. Looking forward to continuing this fight with you all, to November and beyond.

Over 500 volunteers showed up at 6 AM this morning to get the vote out. In 2 hours, we put up over 20,000 door stickers to remind people to vote. Over the last year, we've built the largest field campaign in San Francisco history, and it's beautiful to see it in action today.

Somehow our representatives never question how we fund a genocide in Gaza, but the moment we bring up universal healthcare or childcare, suddenly there's no money. In Congress, I'll call out that hypocrisy and vote for what the people actually need — because I'm not bought by foreign lobbyists.

In Congress, I promise to fight for the LGBTQ+ community every day. I will never turn my back on you, and will always do everything in my power to protect and further your rights. If politicians had a fraction of the courage this community has, our country would be a better place.

It’s becoming clearer and clearer that AIPAC is doing everything they can to keep me out of the top two & secure a win for Scott Wiener in November. First we heard reports that an AIPAC affiliated group is dumping $475k into this race at the last minute to keep me out of the general.

According to recent reports, an AIPAC front group is spending big in our race to try to keep me out of the general election. That’s because they know I have the best chance of beating Scott Wiener, their preferred candidate, and I am the biggest threat to AIPAC’s power in DC.

Matt has always been an outspoken advocate for what's right — speaking out against the genocide in Gaza, the harms caused by AI, and shedding a light on the crimes committed by ICE. I'm proud to have his endorsement and am excited to earn your vote on June 2nd.

I'm so grateful to the thousands of volunteers who have joined this campaign on the doors, the phones, and at farmers markets all across the city. This campaign has always been about the movement, and that movement wouldn't happen without them.
