A campaign slamming Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has erected a billboard specifically targeting the congresswoman’s “economic ineptitude.”
Job Creators Network unveiled its latest billboard in Times Square this week, following Ocasio-Cortez’s recent gloating over her objection to housing an Amazon headquarters in New York City after its construction near Washington, D.C., was stalled.The congresswoman said the project’s temporary stopping indicated that it was a"scam of public funds.” Amazon officials, however, have said the project’s timeline was simply being adjusted and assured it will still create more than 8,000 jobs.
“If Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spent as much time worrying about creating jobs versus killing them, the U.S. economy would be in a lot better shape than it is today,” JCN President and CEO Alfredo Ortiz told the Washington Examiner. “Her recent victory lap over killing thousands of good paying jobs in New York City is only the latest example of her economic ineptitude.”
The billboard reads, “Hey AOC, There You Go Again… Your District Loses Thousands of Jobs and You Take a Victory Lap?” It also blasted the representative’s math skills: “Your Math Skills Are Worse Than We Thought.”It features a picture of Ocasio-Cortez in the infamous “Tax the Rich” dress that she wore to the Met Gala, an event that the representative has come under scrutiny for attending.
JCN said Ocasio-Cortez’s policies have not only killed economic opportunities for New Yorkers but are “incentivizing residents to move to places like Florida and Texas.”
