He looks like an absolute badass

They really chose the worst photo to make him look bad.

Fateh's higher education bill included tuition-free public colleges and universities and tribal colleges for students from families whose income is less than $80,000 a year.[18] It also included an increase to Hunger Free Campus grants,[19]emergency assistance grants.[20]

Fateh was the chief Senate author of a bill to provide minimum wages and worker protections for drivers for rideshare companies such as Uberand Lyft.

Damn, he’s a good lookin dude in your picture, he looks insane in OP’s post!

OP's post image is probably a still image from a video of him ripping someone a new one in committee.

In the age of HD video, it is remarkably easy to catch a single frame of someone looking ridiculous.

35 years old. I'm glad we're having such young people hit the spotlight in politics (I say this as a young person myself)

As somebody in between being a young and an old, holy shit yes!

We in the exclusive Oregon Trail Generation (born late 70s into early 80s, tail end of gen x into the oldest millennials) get to watch how much harder it has gotten for young people, driven by ancient politicians who had things the easiest of any generation throughout their lives, economically speaking.

He looks like a guitar pick in that photo.
