Margaret Hamilton coined the term “software engineering” while developing the on-board flight system as lead software designer for Apollo space program. It was the hard work of women that made it possible to send a man to the moon. #WomensHistoryMonth https://t.co/ewSLEH6kXF — PolitiTweet.org

Children across the U.S. are participating in the #ClimateStrike because they know that the fight against climate change is the fight to guarantee them a livable future. I'm inspired by their actions and urge Congress to let them lead on bold solutions like the Green New Deal. — PolitiTweet.org

7) ”If I am feeling that, imagine what others feel. It’s a sense we are being left behind, a sense of loss. We need to extend wealth creation here from Silicon Valley. That will never make Iowa Into California, but it could allow us to stay in Iowa and unleash Iowa’s potential.” — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

6) As my friend, @douglaswburns put it eloquently: “I’m a Northwestern educated guy who took my paper to No. 1 in Iowa in 2013 but I question myself every day for living in rural America, for coming back as it is just so challenging being in business here today.” — PolitiTweet.org

5) At different moments different communities have answered the nation’s call to service. At this moment, with the digital revolution, Silicon Valley should heed that call —but in partnership with and respecting the rich diversity and talent of every part of our nation. — PolitiTweet.org

4) What makes America work is when we see the partnership between different regions and have a synthesis — a united group of states working for a common national purpose. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

3) Other regions excel at advanced manufacturing. They have a great sense of community, values of hard work, and caring for their neighbors. Youngstown is a great example. @TimRyan. Still others excel as service or finance centers or agriculture hubs. — PolitiTweet.org

2) SV has a great entrepreneurial culture of risk taking and support system for that and technology development. We must do better in partnering so others can take part in the knowledge economy and wealth creation. — PolitiTweet.org

1) I was asked on a panel yesterday whether California should be a blueprint for the nation. While California and Silicon Valley have a lot to offer, there must be an American blueprint recognizing the strength and unique potential of every region of our extraordinary nation... — PolitiTweet.org

I am so energized to see young people across this country taking action on climate change. Our job as lawmakers is to listen to them. If we don’t act, they will have to deal with the fallout from climate disaster. — PolitiTweet.org

If someone ever tells you that businesses can’t afford a $15/hour minimum wage, remind them that the minimum wage would be $20/hour today if it kept up with the productivity growth since the 1960s. — PolitiTweet.org

Very insightful — a foreign policy of restraint must be rooted in a post colonial worldview recognizing the rights & dignity of all human beings. Provisional coalitions with the right, like on Yemen, may be necessary but are unstable ⁦@PeterBeinart⁩ https://t.co/SPQwCz87eK — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Today the Senate sent a strong message that only Congress is allowed to decide if our country goes to war. Not the President. Not the Pentagon. Not defense contractors. I’m proud to work with @BernieSanders on the War Powers Resolution to end the civil war on Yemen. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

This is brilliant. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

Thanks to @BernieSanders leadership, the Senate has just voted for the 2nd time to end our involvement in the unconstitutional war in Yemen. We already passed my War Powers Resolution in the House. Now we will pass the Senate version and finally send it to Trump's desk. — PolitiTweet.org
