Mr. KHANNA. Mr. Speaker, the progressive movement is winning across the country, from the heart of New York to Michigan to Maine.

The people are saying no to foreign wars, and they are saying no to genocide in Gaza. They are saying no to the unfair and lopsided economy that has allowed a few people to hoard extreme wealth and power, and they are saying yes to Medicare for All, to unions for all, to childcare for all, to making sure that we have a housing guarantee for kids by the time they are 35 if they work hard.

Now, some of the oligarchs don't like it. Elon Musk has been threatening to sue me or jail me, but I will tell you what: They should judge us by those who are attacking us.

We will not be intimidated. We stand for transforming this country for the working class over the billionaire class.
