Controversial Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed her Republican colleagues Wednesday; bizarrely suggesting GOP lawmakers are willing to “sacrifice the lives of hourly workers so they can get a spray tan again.”
“GOP is seriously arguing that it’s worth sacrificing the lives of hourly workers so they can get a spray tan again. If they really wanted to reopen the economy, they‘d fund mass testing, contact tracing,& healthcare for people. Instead they’re fighting against hospital funding,” posted AOC on Twitter.

“Now is the time to create millions of good jobs building out the infrastructure and clean energy necessary to save our planet for future generations. For our economy, our planet, and our future, we need a #GreenNewDeal,” posted AOC.

When the coal industry started a long-term decline, instead of moving swiftly to support workers, DC got into a lobbyist-friendly vicious cycle of bailouts that helped co’s more than it helped workers.
This time we need to invest in creating opportunities & financial security.
