About this listen

In November 2016, Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) was elected to the US House of Representatives, the first Indian American woman to serve in that role. Two years later, the “fast-rising Democratic star and determined critic of President Donald Trump”, according to Politico’s Playbook 2017 “Power List”, won reelection with more votes than any other member of the House. Jayapal, cochair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, proved her progressive bona fides when she introduced the most comprehensive Medicare-for-All bill to Congress in February.

Behind the story of Jayapal’s rise to political prominence lie more than two decades of devoted advocacy on behalf of immigrants and progressive causes - and years of learning how to turn activism into public policy that serves all Americans. Use the Power You Have is Jayapal’s account of the path from 16-year-old Indian immigrant to grassroots activist, state senator, and now progressive powerhouse in Washington, DC.

Written with passion and insight, Use the Power You Have offers a wealth of ideas and inspiration for a new generation of engaged citizens interested in fighting back and making change, whether in Washington or in their own communities.
