Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) is calling out Republicans for “classism” for attacking her past work as a bartender.
Over the weekend, the freshman lawmaker slammed Ivanka Trump, daughter and adviser to President Donald Trump, for taking part in G-20 talks despite having no qualifications.
“It may be shocking to some, but being someone’s daughter actually isn’t a career qualification,” Ocasio-Cortez said in response to a viral video of an awkward moment between the first daughter and several world leaders.
Conservative pundit Paris Dennard asked Ocasio-Cortez what her own qualifications are.
She replied with the only qualification that matters in Congress: The election results that showed her easily winning her district last year.
Then, she launched into a passionate defense of not only her own background, but of all people who’ve worked similar jobs:
As always, I‘m proud of my work in restaurants.
I also worked for Sen. Ted Kennedy, piloted literacy projects in the South Bronx, studied Development Economics in W Africa, served as an Educational Director & won international science competitions before I ran for office, too.
