Washington, DC – Today, Rep. Khanna, with 14 of his democratic colleagues, sent a letter to President Trump emphasizing the longstanding progressive position that diplomacy is the only path to resolve the tensions between the United States and North Korea.
President Donald Trump faced significant criticism in 2017 for his hardline stance on North Korea — one he punctuated with personal insults against Kim Jong Un and threats to "totally destroy" the country.
"We need to be firm and deliberate with [North Korea], but reckless rhetoric is not a strategy to keep America safe," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) tweeted in August, after Trump infamously threatened Pyongyang with "fire and fury."
Donald Trump is an exceptionally disappointing president whose misguided approach to foreign affairs was highlighted by the temper tantrum with which he concluded the G7 summit in Canada.

Rep. Ro Khanna calls the inability of the U.S. Congress to take action on gun violence "shameful." At a Saturday forum on community and school safety in Milpitas, Khanna said the solutions are available.
"We know what needs to be done," Khanna, D-Fremont said to the nearly 50 residents gathered for Table Talk at the Milpitas Community Center presented by the city of Milpitas and the Milpitas Unified School District.
But his opinions didn't completely reflect the status of gun sales in the state.

RO KHANNA, the Silicon Valley member of Congress who has been pushing the boundaries of progressive policy in the House, is wading into the debate over a federal job guarantee with a new draft bill.
Silicon Valley's representative, Ro Khanna (D-CA), has now formally requested that the House Energy & Commerce Committee invite AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson to appear before it and explain how his company's retainer of Trump's personal attorney in 2017 doesn't constitute influence buying.
Over the past two months, the progressive wing of the Democratic Party has made a rather dramatic leftward shift on several key issues, creating a new consensus around policies to the left of anything the Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton campaign proposed in 2016.
Among the most buzzed-about policies is a universal job guarantee, which would ensure every American the right to a job no matter what the state of the economy. In April alone, three Democratic senators and rumored 2020 presidential contenders all endorsed the idea.
