Summary
<p>Thom welcomes Mark Pocan, co-chair of the House Progressive Caucus to once again answer questions in a national town hall meeting. Will Progressive be able to weaken the FISA (spy on America bill) and the so-called Patriot Act, to restore some of our rights? And will they be able to call into question the 20 percent increase in defense spending over the last three years? And are we abandoning small business while Donald Trump brings fascism to America 'wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross'? </p><p>And Thom also convenes with Progressive congressional leader Ro Khanna to consider the moment from Ro's perspective as a minority in America- and as a Progressive leader. Will America succeed in becoming a multi-ethnic democracy?</p><p>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.</p>
