Jayapal: US policy is ‘strangling’ Cuba
As Cuba’s economy struggles under the weight of a near-total American oil blockade, Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) is…

I am so grateful my congressional representative Pramila Jayapal visited Cuba at this time. It is vital to support Cuba and its Western Hemisphere allies as well as its partners around the world. The current US administration wants to recreate the theme park island of Bautista criminality while the self determination of the Cuban people offers the planet medicine and music.

Here is a recording of an interview and audience questions of my Congressional Representative Pramila Jayapal with Mehdi Hasan on Zeteo. I'm not sure whether you can access it (I'm a subscriber), but if you can, you get why we appreciate her. She is thoughtful, progressive, strategic and energetic.

“In #Kamala #Harris we have a chance to elect a president who is for the middle class because she is from the middle class,” progressive Rep #Ocasio-#Cortez said in her speech on Monday.
“She understands the urgency of rent checks and groceries and prescriptions. She is as committed to our reproductive and civil rights as she is to taking on corporate greed.”
Ocasio-Cortez issued a wholehearted endorsement of the new nominee, and she promised that, if elected, Harris would serve as a champion of the middle class.
In his own convention speech, Senator #Bernie #Sanders pledged that Democrats would use their governing power to “tax the rich”, “take on price gouging” and “expand Medicare”.
The possibility of that change has animated progressives.
“The energy is electrifying and it’s a lot of young folks,” the congresswoman #Pramila #Jayapal, chair of the Congressional #Progressive #caucus, told the Guardian.
“If you have young people, if you have progressives, Black, brown, Indigenous folks, working-class folks, that is actually the base that helps us to win because they are the ones that go door to door. They’re the ones that mobilize voters.”To deliver on the promises that progressives are seeking, Harris may have to distance herself from Biden in certain areas, especially climate and the war on Gaza.
During his 2020 campaign, Biden embraced a sweeping climate agenda as he looked to reassure the millions of progressive voters who had not backed him in the primary.
While Biden signed the most significant federal climate bill in history, the Inflation Reduction Act, however, failed to follow through on his campaign pledge of “no more drilling on federal lands”.Progressives hope Harris will stick to some of the promises that Biden made as a candidate but then walked back.
“We cannot have that happen again,” #Jeff #Merkley, a senator, told the Guardian.
“We, as climate truth-tellers, have to be very present, very loud, very determined to say,❇️ ‘We will back you 1,000%, but you can’t keep expanding the fossil infrastructure.’”❇️

House Speaker Emerita Nancy #Pelosi (D-Calif.) praised Vice President Kamala #Harris' selection of Minnesota Gov. Tim #Walz as her running mate, calling him a "heartland of America Democrat."
Why it matters:Pelosi, who remains one of the most important power-brokers in the Democratic Party, challenged Republican claims that Walz represents "the left" and is more radical than the other VP finalists.
"Tim Walz I know very well. He served in the House.
To characterize him as 'left' is so unreal," Pelosi said on MSNBC's "Morning Joe.""Really, it's mystifying to me to see someone that I worked with
— shall we say right down the middle
— characterized on the left in this regard."Between the lines:
As a member of Congress from 2007 to 2019, Walz's voting record was more conservative than at least 70% of House Democrats, according to Voteview data.Walz does have a more progressive record as governor,
signing laws protecting abortion rights, legalizing marijuana, restricting gun access and providing universal school meals for students.During the veepstakes, he had the support of key progressive leaders like Sen. Bernie #Sanders (I-Vt.) and House Progressive Caucus Chair Pramila #Jayapal (D-Wash.).
What they're saying:
The Trump campaign has seized on those endorsements and Walz's progressive record, calling him a
👍"dangerously liberal extremist" in a statement responding to Harris' pick on Tuesday.https://www.axios.com/2024/08/06/pelosi-tim-walz-vp-running-mate

♦️“The Stop Corporate Capture Act ♦️is a comprehensive blueprint for #modernizing, #improving, and #strengthening the regulatory system
🔸 to better protect the public,” 🔸
said Rachel Weintraub,
executive director of the "Coalition for Sensible Safeguards."“The bill would restore #Chevron #deference, ensuring that courts defer to agencies as long as their interpretation of an ambiguous statute is reasonable.
The bill would enhance our government’s ability to deliver results for workers, consumers, public health, and our environment.
And it would level the playing field so that ordinary people
– not just big corporations
– can weigh in on potential rules that affect them.”More than 70 groups in the 🔸Coalition for Sensible Safeguards 🔸are calling on senators to endorse the bill introduced today by U.S. Sen. Elizabeth #Warren (D-Mass.),
👉The House version of the bill -- #HR1507, introduced by U.S. Rep. Pramila #Jayapal (D-Wash.) in March 2023, already has 74 cosponsors.
Specifically, the bill would…
• Codify #Chevron #deference, the recently overturned legal principle that courts must defer to agencies as long as their interpretation of statutory ambiguity is reasonable;
• Require #disclosure of changes and the sources of changes made to draft rules during the White House regulatory review process;
• Bar the White House from #unreasonably #delaying essential safeguards;
• Make it a crime for corporations to submit #false #information to regulators;
• Require anyone submitting scientific or technical research to #disclose potential #conflicts of interest;
• Create an Office of the Public Advocate charged with increasing #public #participation in rulemaking, which will give communities that benefit most from new regulatory protections a much stronger voice in the process, including those that speak languages other than English; and
• Authorize agencies to quickly #reinstate rules rescinded through the Congressional Review Act.

⭐️Here are other primaries we’re watching #TODAY ⭐️:
🔥Oregon’s 3rd District Three Democrats
— Susheela #Jayapal, Maxine #Dexter and Eddy #Morales
— are facing off for retiring Democrat Blumenauer’s deep-blue seat, which includes much of Portland.
Jayapal, a former Multnomah County commissioner whose sister is Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), has been endorsed by Sen. #Bernie #Sanders (I-Vt.).Her campaign has run TV ads calling her “the one true progressive in the race.”
#Dexter has run on her record on abortion, renewable energy and housing in the state legislature. The race has drawn a flood of outside money.
A mysterious super PAC called Voters for Responsive Government spent $3.2 million on TV ads 💥attacking Jayapal.💥It won’t be required to disclose its donors until after the primary.
And 314 Action Fund, a hybrid PAC that supports Democrats with science and engineering backgrounds, has spent $2.2 million in the race backing Dexter.
(The PAC has also spent about $500,000 supporting Bynum.)
A campaign finance filing last night revealed who gave to 314 Action last month and helped to underwrite the ads.Top donors included former New York mayor Mike Bloomberg, who gave $500,000, and the investor Robert Granieri, who gave $350,000.
-
“What The Intercept can reveal is that Susheela Jayapal is being targeted by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC, which is secretly funneling money into the race by washing it through 314 Action, according to two Democratic members of Congress familiar with the arrangement.”

The main driver of wealth gains last year was from the stock market hitting record highs.
While wages are increasing for average Americans, the top 1% is gaining wealth at a much faster pace.
The wealth of U.S. #billionaires is currently at $5.5 trillion, 🔸which is up 88% since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.🔸
The nation's rich accruing so much wealth in recent years has renewed calls for a #wealth #tax.
Sen. #Elizabeth #Warren (D-Mass), Rep. #Pramila #Jayapal (D-Wash.), and others are pushing to pass the ♦️Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act♦️, which would put a 2-cent tax on every dollar of wealth over $50 million.
Warren referred to U.S. President Joe Biden calling for higher taxes on billionaires during his State of the Union when the bill was reintroduced earlier this month.

The main driver of wealth gains last year was from the stock market hitting record highs.
While wages are increasing for average Americans, the top 1% is gaining wealth at a much faster pace.
The wealth of U.S. #billionaires is currently at $5.5 trillion, 🔸which is up 88% since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.🔸
The nation's rich accruing so much wealth in recent years has renewed calls for a #wealth #tax.

She wants to #FAFO in an election year!

@soveryoleary It blows my mind that the GOP House caucus a) didn’t have a Plan A & b) the order of succession is kept under a rock.
