Controversial Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ripped her Republican colleagues on the House Floor Thursday afternoon; saying it’s “a joke” when GOP lawmakers “say they have urgency” in providing Coronavirus relief to the American people.

“It is a joke when Republicans say that they have urgency around this bill. The only focus they have urgency around are folks like Ruth’s Chris Steak House and Shake Shack,” said AOC.

Ocasio-Cortez doubled-down on her call for a national work boycott Thursday; bizarrely claiming former White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders doesn’t “care about safety” during the Coronavirus.

“Trump has NO PLAN to get people safely back to work.

GOP Govs like Kemp are sending vulnerable workers to die w/ false claims of safety.

Trump also pushed an unproven, dangerous treatment as a ‘cure’ & firing experts who want to vet claims.

Last thing you care abt is safety,” posted AOC on social media.

“.@AOC says Americans should boycott work. As usual she’s wrong. The goal should be for Americans to SAFELY return to work because unlike AOC and members of Congress, most of us actually have to show up at work to get paid and support our families!” posted Sanders earlier Thursday.
