AOC Stands with Striking Actors and Writers in NYC, Condemns Greed

U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez joined striking writers and actors on a picket line in New York City, expressing her support for their fight against corporate greed and wealth inequality. Ocasio-Cortez walked the picket line with AFL-CIO president Liz Shuler and emphasized the importance of workers' rights and the need to address the concentration of wealth. She stated that elected officials should act on behalf of their constituents if called upon by the unions, but for now, they should let the workers lead the way. The strike by the Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA has gained significant attention, with Ocasio-Cortez being one of the most high-profile elected officials to join the picket line.
