For the last several months, the Office of Congressional Ethics has been reviewing alleged improper coordination between Mike Honda’s campaign and his official House staff.

Ro Khanna announced Saturday his intention to rematch longstanding Democratic Rep. Mike Honda for California's District 17 congressional seat. Honda didn't wait long to go on the attack.

Since winning a seventh term in the House of Representatives last fall, Mike Honda has been relatively active, introducing a new bill almost every week. And then there was Friday.

With all precincts reporting in Silicon Valley's nationally watched House race, Rep. Mike Honda (D-San Jose) appears to have landed an eighth term. But his challenger, patent attorney Ro Khanna, wasn't ready to accept defeat until all outstanding ballots were counted.

Silicon Valley Congressman Mike Honda faces challenger Ro Khanna at 6:30pm tonight in their first and only debate before Election Day. The event will be televised on NBC affiliate KNTV and live-streamed on NBC Bay Area's website.

The source that provided emails for San Jose Inside’s recent stories on pay-to-play coordination between Mike Honda’s office and his re-election campaign has decided to come forward, after new information surfaced about his relationship with former co-workers.

Rep. Mike Honda’s office denies it engaged in a pay-to-play scheme to grant campaign contributors and prospects access to government events, despite internal emails released last week by Metro and San Jose Inside that suggest otherwise. An additional, previously unseen email could make Honda’s claims of strict separation more difficult.

August 26 marks a turning point in the history of the struggle for equal treatment of women and women’s rights, and it’s appropriate to ask this week: How far have we really come?

Congressman Mike Honda is no stranger to falling asleep in meetings and missing votes. But it appears that absenteeism has carried over to his re-election campaign.

Rep. Mike Honda cruised past challenger Ro Khanna in early election results. Still, both made it to the November runoff, thanks to California's top-two primary system.

Well-liked as he is, Rep. Mike Honda has become lazy. That’s why we support fellow Democrat Ro Khanna, a 37-year-old patent lawyer, former trade representative for President Obama and Stanford University economics lecturer.

Ken Scudder, Congressman Mike Honda's communications director, reassured Fly this week that his boss is committed to keeping constituents informed about what he does in Congress. But for all the partisan sparring going on D.C., Honda seems awfully nervous to take off the gloves and discuss the issues here at home.

In a poll commissioned by his backers, 17th Congressional District Rep. Mike Honda (D-San Jose) holds a solid lead in his bid for re-election. But a closer look at the numbers shows Honda's early advantage might not be as strong as he'd like.

Mike Honda—Silicon Valley’s globe-trotting, karaoke-singing, hard-partying congressman—has had a charmed career. Now, a well-funded challenger, Ro Khanna, asks whether being likeable is enough, or whether the public expects a lawmaker to work hard, write laws and fight to keep valley industries competitive.

The government shutdown may be over, but the Republican-fueled hits keep on coming—especially for Silicon Valley’s most vulnerable citizens. Starting Nov. 1, extra funding provided by the American Recovery Act, President Obama’s 2009 economic stimulus package, expire. As a result, people who rely on rely on food stamps, officially known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), or CalFresh in California, will see their benefits decrease. In addition, the U.S. House of Representatives approved a bill last month that would cut $40 billion from the program over the next decade—resulting in 3.8 million people getting kicked off the program next year, the Congressional Budget Office estimates.

Almost two weeks into the federal government shutdown, there are still 800,000 employees sitting at home, waiting for Congress to approve a budget and allow them to get back to work. Meanwhile, members of Congress have not had any hold placed on their paychecks, and a growing number of people are not happy about it.
