3 years ago, on January 6, Alexandria and her colleagues sheltered in place for hours as rioters breached the Capitol to try and overturn the 2020 election results.
GOP leadership have since worked overtime to downplay the scale and violence of the insurrection, spreading lies about who was responsible for the attack.
It’s our responsibility to set the record straight. The global rise of fascism hinges on disinformation and the erosion of trust in our democratic processes.
Trump and other top Republicans are trafficking in outrageous conspiracy theories to avoid accountability for January 6. Because of their lies 25% of Americans, and 34% of Republicans, now believe that the January 6th riot was an FBI set-up.1
But Alexandria will not stop fighting for accountability for those who incited the riot because we are not safe from fascism when people who hold positions of power are willing to endanger the lives of others to score political points.
If you’re able to chip in to help us go toe-to-toe with right-wing Republicans who are still trying to spread lies about what happened, you can do so here.
In solidarity,
Team AOC
