When Alexandria won in 2018, her message inspired a lot of people. She was fearless in critiquing politics-as-usual. She proposed big, new ideas — like the Green New Deal — to tackle our most difficult challenges.
While Alexandria’s message resonated across the country, some Democratic Party leaders responded very differently. They called her ideas extreme and more than a few of them attacked her personally.
We need to show widespread support for Alexandria so she can continue doing what she was elected to do: demand better.
Alexandria campaigned on expanding Medicare in order to make prescriptions more affordable. Now, Medicare has the power to negotiate prescription drugs — and insulin is capped at $35/ month. Alexandria’s Green New Deal was called pie-in-the-sky, but last year, Congress passed its largest ever investment to fight climate change — $369 billion. Now, Alexandria is fighting to ban trading stock for Members of Congress, after it was revealed that 277 lawmakers did not disclose individual stock investments in 2020 — and 75 of them directly profited from stocks in the companies that developed COVID-19 vaccines.1
Our sincerest thanks,
Team AOC
