Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez didnt get a seat on the powerful tax writing committee where she sought to push her progressive agenda of Medicare for All, free college tuition and a green new deal.
Instead, the open downstate New York slot on the House Ways and Means Committee went to a moderate Democrat, Long Island Rep. Tom Suozzi, a former CPA, attorney and county executive.
Suozzi will assume the committee seat of Rep. Joe Crowley, the Queens Democrat Ocasio-Cortez defeated last year in a stunning upset.

She is on the Joint Committee to Convert the US Economy to Communism. Bernie is the senate representative on the committee.

Of course. They rightfully see her as a loose cannon and a danger to their authority.

She should be on the Armed Services Committee because she is a loose cannon.

This was predictable. Pelosi is telling her she’s too big for her britches.

(whoa)
slot on the House Ways and Means Committee went to a moderate Democrat, Long Island Rep. Tom Suozzi, a former CPA, attorney and county executive... [replacing] Rep. Joe Crowley...
She may still wind up on the By Any Ways and Means Necessary Committee.
