このコンテンツについて
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been in the spotlight again with multiple substantive developments over the past few days. To start, she made headlines for supporting a legal challenge to former President Donald Trump’s decision to remove members from Puerto Rico’s Financial Oversight Board. Together with fellow Representatives Nydia Velázquez and Ritchie Torres, Ocasio-Cortez called the removal an attack on independent institutions, warning it could disrupt Puerto Rico’s attempts to resolve PREPA’s longstanding energy crisis. This ongoing dispute highlights her continued advocacy for Puerto Rican autonomy and responsible federal oversight, which has been a consistent biographical thread throughout her career, according to a recent Quiver Quantitative press release.
Her legislative work also saw tangible success. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez authored and championed the Bipartisan Healthy Start Reauthorization Act of 2025, which passed unanimously through committee and the full House this month. Healthy Start funds programs for maternal and infant health across more than 37 states, and the bill’s overwhelming bipartisan support—a rare feat these days—speaks to her growing influence in moving meaningful social legislation, as highlighted in Norwood News. If the Senate passes it, the program will be extended through 2030, potentially leaving a lasting mark on maternal health outcomes in the U.S.
On September 23, Ocasio-Cortez held a virtual town hall for her district, streamed live on multiple platforms including LiveNOW from FOX and YouTube. She discussed her opposition to electricity rate hikes in New York, emphasizing the economic pressures on working families and small businesses. She also announced the introduction of the 9/11 Immigrant Worker Freedom Act, which seeks to guarantee citizenship pathways for undocumented first responders and cleanup workers who served after the September 11 attacks, underscoring her push for recognition and fair treatment of immigrant populations involved in American tragedies, as covered in detail during her town hall.
Financial disclosures filed September 29 revealed Ocasio-Cortez’s continued fundraising prowess, with $5.7 million raised last quarter—almost entirely from individual donors—and $9.8 million cash on hand. This positions her not only as a legislative force but as a fundraising heavyweight. Her net worth remains modest at $49,000 according to Quiver Quantitative, reinforcing her anti-corporate image.
In more speculative news, FOX Business and others report continued chatter about her potential interest in a 2028 presidential run, though she has made no explicit announcements and credible analysts like Victor Davis Hanson have cast doubt on the likelihood of her nomination. Social media remains abuzz with her recent legislative victories and strong stances during the town hall. Online reactions to her bipartisan bill, in particular, have been notably positive, with supporters and critics alike acknowledging her ability to work across the aisle.
