[1]Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress

7 years ago today, Alexandria made history.

She had left her bartending job to challenge a 20 year incumbent Democrat
for Congress — in line to become Speaker of the House — who was now
outspending her 10-to-1.

Attack ads called her ‘extreme’ because she believed that everyday people
could come together and defeat powerful special interests, win real action
on the climate crisis, and build a democracy that works for all of us.

Everyone counted her out. But on June 26, 2018, Alexandria won the
primary, putting her on the path to become the youngest woman ever elected
to Congress.

7 years later, Alexandria is still fighting for what she believes is
common sense:

– That in the wealthiest nation in the history of the world, a person
shouldn’t go bankrupt when they get sick.

– That a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live.

– That our elected officials should take on abuses of corporate greed
everywhere they find it.

And together, we’ve built a movement fighting for real progressive change,
from Medicare for All to democratizing fundraising power in politics.

movement going strong? Alexandria doesn’t attend fancy cocktail
fundraisers, or curry favor with billionaires — her fight is entirely
powered by everyday people who believe a better world is possible.
