INTERVIEW: Democrat Joe Khan Hopes to Bring Change to the Bucks County District Attorney's Office

In this conversation, Doylestown’s Joe Khan discusses his candidacy for Bucks County district attorney. He talks about his extensive experiences as a federal prosecutor and county solicitor. Khan also highlights the importance of addressing hate crimes and extremism, the need for proactive community engagement, and the philosophical differences between himself and his Republican opponent.

Why are you running for district attorney?

I want my kids to have a DA who’s going to keep them and their classmates and their neighbors and everyone in Bucks County safe. And we don’t have that right now. There’s a lot that’s happening in world that’s really bad. We need people, especially in positions like DA, who are going to stand up and fight for everyone, who are going to do something where we need to to protect us from the bad things that are happening and also to provide some hope, to write a blueprint of the good that we can do together. I spent my career over the course of 25 years doing exactly that as a federal prosecutor, as a county solicitor, keeping us safe, bringing people together, not dividing us. And I think that’s what we need in our DA right now. And that’s why I’m running.
