Aisha Wahab's Congress Win Celebrated
Democratic Senator Aisha Waihah won a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives representing California's Fourth District in a special election following the resignation of former Congressmember Eric Swalwell. She faced a massive campaign of dark money spent by pro-Israel groups, but she was able to overcome it and won by a 20-point margin, despite more than $5 million spent by the Israeli lobby to oust her. Waihah is the first Afghan-American to reach Congress, and her victory marks a new blow to pro-Israel lobby forces. It highlights the importance of representing marginalized communities and their role in American politics. Waihah will compete for a full term in the upcoming November elections.
