A candid, no bull conversation with
Congressman Jake Auchincloss (D-MA)
Pushing bold – taxing junk food, regulating AI, repurposing public land.
Join us Monday, September 22nd from 3:45PM - 4:30PM on Zoom
Jake Auchincloss (D-MA), a former Marine captain, is pushing bold ideas — from primary reform, repurposing public land, and AI regulation, to taxing junk food and using digital ads to fund healthcare and journalism. In a recent TIME interview, he warned Democrats are ‘bereft of big ideas’ and must take on soaring costs in healthcare, housing, and education. With prices rising, tech racing ahead, and politics divided, Jake offers a candid, no-BS take on rebuilding the middle class and re-energizing democracy.
