THAT kind of conversation helps YOU as a normal person understand & bring you in the same convos that we as your Reps are having as we negotiate. That empowers you to give your input. & THAT is of so much more service to you than discussing optics or political beefs or whatever — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
That’s why it’s so important to discuss this not just in numbers, but in changes to the leg. Let’s say we bring down $3.5T. We can do that by taxing the rich to offset, cutting universal pre-k, or shortening the funding time. All can bring outlay down. Which one do you prefer? — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
Additionally, changes to a topline number isn’t necessarily shorthand for a conservative or progressive policy either. Ex: There’s a world where a bigger number over longer time could be a conservative win, or a smaller number over shorter time could be a progressive win.Or not! — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
& I suspect it may also be why you see media reflexively centering coverage of these bills on a number instead of what’s actually in them. The thing is, 1 number doesn’t tell you anything. It doesn’t help you as a normal person understand at ALL how your life could improve. — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
&that is jarring to both a culture built on corporate lobbying & media struggling to cover this well. That’s why you see knot-twisting headlines attempting to frame a caucus of ~100 members as the problem instead of the conservative handful blocking votes w/ inconsistent demands- — PolitiTweet.org
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
The reason a lot of DC insiders are freaking out is bc starting in ‘16/‘18, people started to vote en masse for members who reject corporate $. Those victories built over time. & while big money still has the upper hand (for now), lobbyists can’t dictate the way they’re used to- — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC
The Speaker didn’t break any promises. The arbitrary date 9 people insisted on was in the Aug rule vote to proceed on a $3.5T bill. That bound $3.5T w/ Sept date. Challenging $3.5 also challenged their date. That’s ok! Right > rushed. We can still Build Back Better… together!☺️ — PolitiTweet.org

It’s not about the number, it’s about impact. These are our conditions in NYCHA. No winter heat, black mold, kids poisoned by lead.

Ever notice how “deficit hawks” vote for record-high defense spending, yet claim bills that help people & challenge lobbyists are “too much?” ‘22 Defense Bill = $768 billion/yr Build Back Better = $350B/yr Guess which got rubber stamped & which gets deemed a “spending problem” — PolitiTweet.org

One under-discussed BIF aspect is the Senators pushing it demanded it be passed unaltered. As in: House passed its own infra bill & wasn’t allowed to conference or even add amendments to BIF. Imagine if I demanded everyone + POTUS pass my bill w/0 input or change! Silly, right? — PolitiTweet.org
