New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez picks Sanders over Warren
Ocasio-Cortez will appear with Sanders at a rally in Queens, N.Y., on Saturday. The outspoken congresswoman emerged as a leading voice of her party’s progressives after she ousted longtime Democratic Rep. Joe Crowley in the 2018 midterm election. Her endorsement of Sanders was first reported by the Washington Post.
Another high-profile liberal congresswoman, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, announced Tuesday that she too is endorsing Sanders.“Bernie is leading a working-class movement to defeat Donald Trump that transcends generation, ethnicity and geography,” Omar said.
