Mr. KHANNA. Mr. Speaker, the American people are angry at the corruption in our politics while food and gas prices go up and the American Dream seems dead. People feel they have no say while the rich and powerful call the shots.

We need an administration to actually stand up to this corrupt power structure.

First, appoint a special prosecutor to investigate and prosecute the Epstein class that abused and raped young girls.

Second, call a Constitutional Convention to overturn Citizens United. This Congress isn't going to take on tech billionaires or private health insurance. Go to the American people and have two-thirds of the States pass an amendment to overturn Citizens United, ban super-PACs and money in politics.

Third, ban the insider trading on Polymarket, Kalshi, and the stock market, where people have made millions because of this illegal, immoral war in Iran.

Our Founders would be rolling over in their graves. We need to restore power to the people.
