Hi John,

Recently, progressive icon Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made a statement tying poverty and unemployment to the uptick in crime throughout communities in New York City during the pandemic.

Republican Rep. Ted Yoho, who has never had a conversation with Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez before, accosted her on the Capitol steps, calling her “disgusting,” a “fucking bitch,” and told her, “You are out of your freaking mind.”

Several congressmen have spoken out against Yoho’s outbursts, including Rep. Dean Phillips, who tweeted, “Like @aoc, I believe poverty to be a root cause of crime. Wonder why Rep. Yoho hasn’t accosted me on the Capitol steps with the same sentiment?”

We know that GOP leaders like Florida Rep. Ted Yoho are scared of powerful women like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez -- and that they would never disrespect a congressional representative in the same manner. We’re appalled by the blatant sexism espoused by leaders who walk through our nation's capital each day -- and at A Woman’s Place, we stand by Rep. Ocasio-Cortez. Today, we hope you will, too.

Do you stand with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?
