It is absolutely wild that members of Congress are still allowed to buy and sell individual stock. It shouldn’t be legal. We’ve introduced legislation to end the practice, but as one can imagine it’s a very uphill battle to pass. This shouldn’t even be controversial though! — PolitiTweet.org

It was clear from the beginning that the way a skinny bill gets a shot is if it’s part of a larger infrastructure package. Voting on the skinny lobbyist-friendly bill 1st gives conservatives leeway to hurt the larger infrastructure bill w/childcare, Medicare, climate,etc. Nope 🙅🏽♀️ — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
Conservative* House Democrats. Let’s stop pretending that Dems who threaten to tank the President’s agenda, kill childcare/Medicare expansion, and work w/ GOP to expand the cruelest parts of our immigration system are “moderate.” They are not moderate. They’re conservative. — PolitiTweet.org

Also - any economic historians out there with reading material recommendations on TNEC? I’ve been studying up on the history of the original cmte but always open to new suggestions/recommendations 🤗 — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
The TNEC started w/ examining monopoly and antitrust, but found that inequality sprawled far beyond that -& some credit the TNEC with advancing the economic groundwork for New Deal-era policies like Social Security & more. All of this is to say: watch this space. @FairGrowthCmte — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
The @FairGrowthCmte is a historic temporary select committee to tackle inequality in America. It is modeled off TNEC, (Temporary Nat’l Economic Committee) that was charged w/ investigating the extreme concentration of economic power in the US leading up to the Great Depression. — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
The average family in the US used to double their income once every 23 years. Today it takes over 100 years. We are in an absolute crisis of inequality. To study it,the House launched a historic @FairGrowthCmte,a revival of TNEC that helped steer us out of the Great Depression. — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. Cuomo’s resignation is necessary and long overdue. But there is still a large amount of work ahead to account for and reverse the ways our institutions were molded over years to maximize the impunity and lack of transparency necessary for these abuses to unfold as they did. — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
There is a huge difference between having an awkward interaction and discussing / learning from it vs. mobilizing entire networks and institutions to bring in victims, silence coverage, and retaliate against those who report abuse. Trying to blur that line helps abuses continue. — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
When abusers of power blame everyone else for “misunderstanding” their abuse, it is often a way to gain sympathy from those who’ve ever been / could be involved in a misunderstanding. But the intentional environment of fear & intimidation harassers create is far from a mistake. — PolitiTweet.org

War was bipartisan. Tax cuts for the rich were bipartisan. Wall St bailouts were bipartisan. Fossil fuel giveaways were/are bipartisan. Just because something is “bipartisan” doesn’t make it intrinsically good for people or worthy of passage. Substance matters. — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
If mods want to blow up the infra deal, that’s on them. I know this is tough for some to understand, but the US is more than a handful of suburbs- communities outside them aren’t disposable. And just bc something is “bipartisan” doesn’t mean it’s good. Look at Wall St bailouts. — PolitiTweet.org

💯%. On Capitol Hill, the norm in staff culture is to advise to pull back, not push, & be cautious. The only way this happened was with the dedicated staff surrounding us. For every member that slept out, there were staff rallying out there too. They are major public servants. — PolitiTweet.org
