Congress Quote by Lina Khan

“In Washington, it's very easy to privilege just some set of voices and not another set of voices. And so we try to open our doors and make sure we are keeping the full country in mind, rather than people who have access to power, or a reporter they can call up and gripe to, or a member of Congress.” quote by Lina Khan — Download Open image
