Controversial Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called-out members of her own party this week for sending “fewer and less generous relief checks” to working-class Americans during the CoVID pandemic.
“Conservative Dems have fought so the Biden admin sends fewer & less generous relief checks than the Trump admin did. It’s a move that makes little-to-no political or economic sense, and targets an element of relief that is most tangibly felt by everyday people. An own-goal,” posted AOC.
