Pennsylvania State Rep. Chris Rabb, a socialist Democrat, is poised to represent most of Philadelphia in Congress. Rabb has made headlines with his progressive proposals, including abolishing the death penalty and transitioning Pennsylvania to 100% renewable energy by 2050.

Immigration and Law Enforcement

Rabb has questioned the premise of ‘illegal immigrants,’ asking ‘What are illegals?’ during an interview. He argued that people who enter the country without permission are not committing a criminal act. Rabb also expressed his desire to abolish ICE and dismantle immigrant concentration camps.

Rabb’s views on law enforcement are also unconventional. He believes that 99% of police work does not involve pursuing criminals and that communities can be kept safe without a traditional police force. Rabb cited the example of early America, where there were no organized police departments, and communities were able to maintain safety through other means.

Rabb’s platform includes a range of progressive policies, such as Medicare for All, universal basic income, and federal jobs guarantees. His views have been criticized by some as being too radical, with some arguing that they would fundamentally transform the country in a dangerous way.
