We have failed a generation by letting college tuition skyrocket & saddling them with lifetime debt. I had over $100k in debt after my education. We need to make public college free & have 1000 new trade schools.

A Thanksgiving Day Agenda: ✅ Medicare for All ✅ Ban Private Equity buying homes ✅ Free public college/1000 trade schools ✅ $10 day childcare ✅ Take on meatpackers & food corporations to lower grocery bills

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialNov 27(source)

This shooting of National Guardsmen the day before Thanksgiving is horrific. These are servicemembers who deserve our utmost respect.

I went to the heart of Trumpland to find out why beef prices are going up. In Texas, it's cowboys versus the corporate oligarchy.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialNov 25(source)

Some consultants rolled their eyes when I lead the fight to expose the Epstein Class. What they were mocking was someone willing to stand with survivors and up to Trump. I ignored them, fought anyways, and we won. www.mercurynews.com/2025/11/21/e...

Taves: To win Epstein files, Rep. Ro Khanna befriended Republicans, ignored fellow Democrats

The Silicon Valley congressman says some from his party rolled their eyes when he originally pushed his transparency bill.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialNov 24(source)

Our country has been divided for so very long. But courage is bipartisan. Courage.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialNov 23(source)

Against all odds, the survivors succeeded. Now that it will be the law of the land, anyone at the DOJ who does not comply is risking future prosecution and contempt of Congress.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialNov 23(source)

Vance asks for a "little bit of patience." Sound familiar? Hoover plunged the nation into Depression asking Americans "if you will have patience". Meanwhile, a taxi driver with cancer in Arizona has premiums go up from $44 to $2,600 a month.

Meet the California Democrat who finally cornered Trump on the Epstein files | Opinion

Ro Khanna’s “Epstein Files Transparency Act” passed unanimously through the Senate and was signed Wednesday evening, after weeks of protest by President Trump.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialNov 23(source)

Assemblywoman Brittney Miller, Judiciary Chair in Nevada, and I agree. Put @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social on a float and have him go from NY to LA! He is inspiring people and bringing people together around a positive agenda instead of tearing things down.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialNov 23(source)

@anandwrites.bsky.social powerfully articulates why I’ve called out the Epstein class. This fight is about justice for the survivors. It’s also about standing against elite impunity & a governing class that outsourced jobs for profits & got us into endless wars. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/23/o...

Opinion | How the Elite Behave When No One Is Watching: Inside the Epstein Emails

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialNov 22(source)

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social shows if you stand on principle from a deep place, the world including Trump will move to you.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialNov 20(source)

Rep. Thomas Massie and I awakened Congress. We shook it up to stand up to Trump. He caved and signed our bill. The survivors won.

Ro Khanna@rokhanna.bsky.socialNov 19(source)

"With a near-unanimous vote in Congress to pass his bill...Khanna can claim a victory that no other Democratic presidential prospect has achieved: cracking the MAGA coalition.” Let's spend more time railing against a rigged system than just memeing against Trump. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Rep. Ro Khanna cracks the MAGA coalition over the Epstein files

The California Democrat, who is considering a White House run, told NBC News his unlikely victory includes the building blocks of a populist vision that can "unite the left and right."
