Ro Khanna to talk about how Democrats win back voters -- both in Silicon Valley and the heartland – which he says will require Democrats to embrace tech as a force for rebuilding the country and the economy. Plus, Khanna weighs in on Elon Musk’s plans to cut government spending under the incoming Trump administration. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

And with two months left in her tenure, she is now racing to cement that legacy. On POLITICO Tech, Raimondo joins host Steven Overly to talk about her plans to dole out all microchip subsidies, today’s global summit on AI safety and why she thinks her work will withstand a Republican-controlled Washington.
