What’s wild to me @RogerWilliamsTX is why would you blatantly lie to a reporter who saw this exchange?
You were yelling at me too, about “throwing urine.”
Well said Congresswoman.
Speaking of getting sh*t done, my sister @AOC recently
✔️passed a critical housing justice amendment in the House
✔️co chaired a climate task force
✔️filed a bill to stop secret police

voted against an anti lynching bill
- Does not apologize or name any action he did

In the category of good short term AND long term investment includes:
(1) money to help schools buy laptops for poor kids;
(2) funding to discount data connections for low income households.

Distance learning for my kids starts next week. No big deal for us bc our house is full of screens; we’ve got a high speed data connection.
But 35% of low income children don’t have a home data connection. And forget about a laptop.
Welcome to the distance learning gap.
