Connie Chan's Run for Congress (S9 rerun)

Listen in on this chat I had with Connie Chan back in April of this year. Topics include:

the gerrymandering of D1, the district she represents

the 2024 federal election, and how what the administration is doing ties into her run for Congress

priorities beyond stopping fascism: health care, education, and immigration

Connie's favorite things to do in SF

Since we recorded in May, Connie and Scott Wiener won the primary, Wiener's campaign released an AI chatbot that returned racist results about Connie, billionaire crypto fascist bros have dumped millions into Wiener-aligned super PACs, and Wiener has lied about the influence of AI companies on his campaign. You know, politics as usual.

The race can be summed up as: working folks and unions vs. billionaires trying to further build San Francisco as a city for rich people.

*In prepping for this rerun, it came to my attention with a simple Google search that right-wing astroturf group Grow SF paid for a search result when your query is "Connie Chan for Congress." Yeah, nothing shady about that.
