Rep. Ro Khanna Endorses Dr. Richard Pan for Congress
Sacramento, CA — Congressman Ro Khanna has endorsed Dr. Richard Pan in his campaign for Congress in California’s 6th Congressional District.
Rep. Khanna cited Dr. Pan’s record delivering for working families, lowering prescription drug costs, expanding access to health care, and taking on the corporate interests driving up costs.
“I’m proud to endorse Dr. Richard Pan for Congress,” said Rep. Ro Khanna. “Dr. Pan has spent his career delivering for working families and understands that the biggest challenge people face right now is the cost of living. As a pediatrician and public servant, Dr. Pan has taken on tough fights to lower prescription drug costs, expand access to health care, and make sure our economy works for workers, not just those at the top. We need leaders who will take on corporate price gouging and stand with workers to bring down costs – and I know Dr. Pan will do exactly that in Congress.”
Dr. Pan thanked Rep. Khanna for his endorsement.
“I’m honored to earn Congressman Khanna’s support,” said Dr. Richard Pan. “Families across our region are being squeezed by the rising cost of health care, prescription drugs, housing, groceries, and everyday necessities. I’ve taken on tough fights to lower costs before, and in Congress, I will stand with workers and fight to make our economy work for families, not just those at the top.”
Rep. Khanna’s endorsement adds to Dr. Pan’s large support from members of Congress, labor unions, Democratic clubs, health care professionals, educators, local elected officials, and community leaders across California’s 6th Congressional District.
