The future of the Democratic party

The Atlantic magazine published a profile on Ro's vision for a new era of progressivism

Jason,   The Atlantic magazine published a profile on Ro's vision for a new era of progressivism and his role as "a bridge between America's faded industrial might and its digital future." It's a must-read. READ: Ro Khanna Wants to be the Future of the Democratic Party   The author, Russell Berman, joined Ro in New Hampshire where he was campaigning to support the write-in campaign for Joe Biden and to Bucks County, Pennsylvania where Ro grew up and where his faith in America comes from. He writes: "Here's Khanna's [vision]. He wants to marry the forward-looking spirit of the companies founded in and around his district—Google, Apple, Tesla—with the traditional middle-class values of his suburban upbringing in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.    And he wants to inspire a "new economic patriotism" to rebuild America's industrial base with climate-friendly technology—a project that he hopes will bring manufacturing jobs back to the Rust Belt, and working-class voters back to the Democratic Party."   "The policy that best exemplifies this is Khanna's push for federal investment in manufacturing technologies such as green steel and clean aluminum, which he sees as a way of reindustrializing the Rust Belt while minimizing carbon emissions and air pollution. After months of negotiations with environmental groups, labor unions, and manufacturers, Khanna is planning a trip later this spring to Johnstown, Pennsylvania, to unveil legislation that would spend billions to build steel plants in former industry hubs. (The bill will have at least one Republican co-sponsor from the region, he told me.) He thinks it will 'capture the imagination'—a favorite Khanna-ism—of voters longing for America to reclaim its status from China as the world's great manufacturer."   You can read the whole article here.
