@PEWilliams_ I think we agree more than not. Discuss all this in depth in chapter 4 of my book including concrete housing policies. — PolitiTweet.org

@PEWilliams_ Agree — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

@PEWilliams_ Other regions should learn from the Valley’s mistake and have enough affordable housing as there is growth. But decentralizing jobs will create a better national equilibrium on jobs to housing units. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

@PEWilliams_ My point is we need more housing supply in the Bay Area and other regions. But the Bay Area is 12.5 jobs to a housing unit. National average is 1.5 jobs to housing unit. Decentralizing jobs can help create opportunities where property values are much lower. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2021, small businesses paid an average health insurance premium of $13,737 per family, and the family paid another $8,067. Imagine if that was spent on higher wages. We need Medicare for All for both small businesses AND families. — PolitiTweet.org

There will be 25 MILLION digital jobs in America by 2025. Smart federal investment would be distributed throughout the country, not just in a few cities on our coasts. It’s time to make sure that we don’t leave any community out. — PolitiTweet.org

Working people pay their fair share of income taxes every time they get a paycheck. The ultra-rich should do the same. @POTUS’ Billionaire’s Tax proposal is a great step toward making sure everyone pays their fair share. https://t.co/IrOT7aLi95 — PolitiTweet.org

.@GunnelsWarren is in the arena everyday fighting for people. The problem with @mattyglesias post is a claim of knowing the “truth” or what is “smart.” Democratic discourse discovers truth in a political context, and too many Americans have been excluded by beltway elites. — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

And I don’t think we’ve applied enough imagination about how we could shift demand from the red hot places to the stone cold places. I think if we did that, we would do an enormous amount of good in the stone cold places. And we would also enable there to be more total demand…” — PolitiTweet.org

.@LHSummers said “we as a country have underinvested substantially in place-based policies. I think that we have red hot markets in some places — the places where you live and the places where I live. And we have rather stone cold markets in a variety of other places...” — PolitiTweet.org

Ro Khanna @RoKhanna

.@LHSummers had very thoughtful insights on the importance of place based investments. Whether or not you agree with him, no one can deny his intellectual rigor & deep economic knowledge. Engaging with him forces me to sharpen my thinking and better defend progressive policies. — PolitiTweet.org

.@GunnelsWarren is spot on. If we keep letting wealth pile up in a few areas to a few people, we fuel resentment and strain further our democracy. A pro democracy agenda must tackle the huge wealth gap. — PolitiTweet.org

.@jimcramer Pat, like me, grew up in PA and believes we need to revitalize manufacturing. The whole nation should be rooting for the $20 billion investment in Ohio with 10k jobs to succeed. There is an energy and new patriotism in Columbus! — PolitiTweet.org

With investment at the federal level, we can create good-paying tech jobs all over the country, not just on our coasts. We should invest in our communities so that we can build prosperity for all. — PolitiTweet.org

Reliance on foreign fuel simply makes us vulnerable to the whims of a handful of petrostate autocrats. Let’s pass BBB’s investments in renewable energy to put us on the path to true energy independence. — PolitiTweet.org

I enjoyed my fireside chat with @lisapjackson at @Apple.
