Bonus Episode - Political Reform Blueprint ft. Ro Khanna

Funny Money is a show about the economy; how it works, and how it can work better. 

In this BONUS episode, Ka and Andrés are joined by Rep. Ro Khanna to discuss his new Political Reform Blueprint to tackle the vast corruption in DC from members of Congress day trading stocks, to lobbying, PAC & big donor campaign money, and revolving door schemes. We also discuss Ro's take on fiscal policy, inflation, budget drama, and the field of economics. 

Khanna represents California's 17th Congressional District, located in the heart of Silicon Valley, and is serving his fourth term. He serves on the House Armed Services Committee as ranking member of the Subcommittee on Cyber, Innovative Technologies and Information Systems (CITI), co-chair of the Congressional Caucus on India and Indian Americans, a member of the Select Committee on the Strategic Competition between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party, and on the Oversight and Accountability committee, where he previously chaired the Environmental Subcommittee. Ro was also co-chair of the Bernie Sanders 2020 Campaign.
