Progressive darling Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) made the case that the proposed Wuhan coronavirus relief package that's currently floating in Congress shows why progressive ideas and the progressive movement are achievable.
"It's actually a fascinating progressive moment because what it's shown is that all of these issues have never been about how are you going to pay for it. It's never been about whether we have the capacity to do these things or if the logistics have worked out," AOC explained in a video for Sen. Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign. "All of these excuses that we have been given as to why we cannot treat people humanely have suddenly gone up in smoke and what has been revealed is all of these issues was really about a lack of a political will and who you deemed worthy to be in an emergency or not."
According to the freshman congresswoman, progressives have been pushing for housing to be deemed a right for a "very, very long time."
"Now that we are experiencing everybody who is threatened by the uncertainty of this moment, everyone's realizing, 'Wait. We're all in this together.' That applies to not just economic prosperity but it also applies to issues of criminal justice, of civil rights, of human rights," she explained.

The new Left promises “A bat in every pot.”
Now we know who wrote the Pelosi Corona bill.
Reminds me of Goober in Andy Griffith when they told him he looked like an intellectual with his glasses. Couldn’t get the dim wit to shut up.
“A bat in every pot”. LOL!
Just when I thought she couldn’t say anything any dumber.
Another crisis profiteer runs her more-than-ample mouth ...

For the good of New York and the country she has to be voted out of office next November.
