I’m Vichal Kumar. I’m running for Congress in NY-7 to Dismantle ICE, Empower Workers & Guarantee Healthcare.  Resist. Reclaim. Reimagine. Join us, kumar4ny.com

Wishing everyone celebrating a joyful Vaisakhi. This holiday marks renewal, harvest, and community, values that have always been at the heart of South Asian life in New York and around the world. May this season bring you and your families health, abundance, and togetherness.

Two 2028 candidates lobbied against this DNC resolution condemning AIPAC. It failed. Anyone who wants to lead this party must condemn and reject AIPAC money. They should also pledge not to have a Super PAC in Democratic primaries. I take no PAC money and have no Super PAC. newrepublic.com/post/208890/dn…

@MetaMan1111 @SECPaulSAtkins Tell me more about what’s happening, always happy to listen

@SECPaulSAtkins How about the FIF petitioning the SEC to stall Nextbridge S1 approval? How about TradeStation being oversold MMTLP and FINRA’s illegal U3 halt trapping 65k investors? Get off your ass man!

The Division of Enforcement has undergone a major course correction, prioritizing investor protection and market integrity. I am pleased to have David rejoin the SEC at this critical time, as we focus on the types of misconduct that inflict the greatest harm to investors.

9/ The FTC and DOJ can still block this deal. Call your rep, demand they review. And if you want someone in Congress who knows what thin margins feel like, follow along and share. #Kumar4ny #Brooklyn #Queens #Affordable

8/ I’m not a politician who discovered this issue. I'm someone who worried about 50 cent sunk costs. Every small business owner in Brooklyn and Queens knows exactly what I'm talking about.

1/ Sysco just paid $29 billion for Restaurant Depot. I used to shop there with cash because we had no credit. 🧵 2/ Every week I'd go through the Restaurant Depot flyer line by line. Which canned good had the best margin, what might sell. This was how we ran my parents' store.

@BernieSanders Absolutely and why I’m running for Congress as a public defender, we need people who will say enough

One month after starting the war in Iran, this is the statement of the President of the United States on Easter Sunday. These are the ravings of a dangerous and mentally unbalanced individual. Congress has got to act NOW. End this war.

Happy Easter to all those celebrating! Wishing you a joyous day!

That’s one family. Multiply that by 20 years. You’ve been fighting alone long enough. That’s why I’m running. #Kumar4NY #NY07 #NYCHA #ADA

So we threatened another lawsuit. Got her moved again. The system doesn’t just fail you once. It fails you over and over and expects you to be grateful. 3/4

She couldn’t get to her own bathroom. A mother and her two kids were living in public housing with conditions so bad we had to threaten a lawsuit just to get her transferred. We packed up their stuff. Moved them ourselves. 1/4

5/5 That community deserves someone in Washington who knows what it actually costs to show up for people. Follow if you believe D.C. needs more people who come from somewhere. #Congress #Brooklyn #Queens

4/5 What they built wasn’t a business. It was a community. I think about those books a lot now that I’m running for Congress.

1/5 What’s your story? This composition book holds mine. 🧵
