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.

I spoke with Mack Truck Workers from UAW of Local 677 in Lehigh Valley. We must end taxpayer subsidized federal contracts to MAC to stop them from moving and tax offshoring. We need to close the loopholes in USMCA that allow them to import trucks from Mexico with enough US content and avoid tariffs

At the heart of our founding was the belief that citizens must be economically independent to be free. I spoke to Pennsylvanians about a New Economic Patriotism to make our highest mission the economic independence of families in all communities. My full remarks: open.substack.com/pub/rokhannaus…

I sat with Latino community leaders in Philadelphia for a meeting on the need for capital for economic development. We need to reform SBA and SBIC to make sure more Latino main street and tech businesses get funding.

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.

I joined Bishop Felton and Black clergy members at Mt. Airy Church of God in Christ for a roundtable to discuss how the Black community can build wealth and economic independence in a modern economy. We need receipts to build trust that can deliver real change.

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.
