Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told Republicans how women know the GOP isn’t looking out for their best interests.
Rep. Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York) said, “And so we’re supposed to sit here on this side of the dais and, to the Ranking Member, to echo Ranking Member Lee’s point, see a party that voted against women’s access. on abortion, I voted against our rights, the Lilly Ledbetter Equal Pay Act, I voted against the Violence Against Women Act, I voted against our right to have access to contraception, and I don’t even vote for equal funding, fair funding in women’s sports, and I’m supposed to believe that he’s the one looking out for my best interests? I do not think so.”

AOC succeeded. One of the main reasons Republicans continue to lose elections is because they claim to act in the best interests of women, but their actions are the opposite of their words. There seems to be a mentality within the Republican Party that they cannot publicly support their actual positions, so they must deceive voters by hiding their dangerous and destructive agenda.
Ocasio-Cortez has called on the GOP to stand down, and Democrats must do the same leading up to the 2024 elections.
