[1]Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for Congress

We need a vision that's not just anti-Trump. This is a position I've long held.

We actually need a positive, affirmative vision for this country, and be
willing to take risks, and vote on real things, and actually tell people
what we're fighting for.

A lot of people don't know what an average Democrat fights for.

This is where we have an opportunity to fight for minimum wage increases,
to fight for guaranteed health care, to fight for something that's
actually worthwhile.

Like in New York City: we just experienced a near historic heat wave —
people stood in line in the hot sun, no air conditioning to vote for
Zohran.

You need to have a vision that's worth standing in the hot sun for hours
to vote for. People are not going to do that with only ‘being upset.’

It's important for us to hold the corruption of this administration
accountable, but we also have to have an alternative vision.

And it can't just be, “Not that.” If it's not that, then what is it?

For me, my “what” is raising the federal minimum wage to a living wage.
My “what” is guaranteed healthcare for every American and catching up with
the rest of the modern world.
My “what” is making public colleges and universities tuition free.
My “what” is actually having a real path to citizenship in the United
States.

That’s why this movement is so important: we’re fighting for each and
every one of these issues, from universal healthcare to getting money out
of our politics.
