このコンテンツについて
Over the past few days, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been deeply involved in several high-stakes political moments that underscore her position as one of the Democratic Party's most visible progressive voices. Most recently, the New York congresswoman headlined a virtual rally Monday evening for Aftyn Behn, the Democratic candidate in Tennessee's special election for the Seventh Congressional District. Joining her were fellow progressive champion Representative Pramila Jayapal, Black Voters Matter co-founder LaTosha Brown, and former Vice President Al Gore. The race has become a closely watched national battleground ahead of the 2026 midterms, with outside groups already spending more than six and a half million dollars on the contest. Behn has positioned herself as a check on Trump's Republican-controlled Congress, focusing her campaign message on affordability and cost of living—issues that Ocasio-Cortez has long championed as core to progressive politics.
Just yesterday, on December first, Ocasio-Cortez joined Representatives Rosa DeLauro and Angie Craig in introducing the No GOUGE Act, legislation designed to combat corporate price gouging linked to tariffs established during the Trump administration. The acronym stands for No Gratuitous Overcharging Ubiquitous Global Exports, and the bill represents the congresswoman's continued focus on protecting working families from economic hardship in an inflationary climate.
Beyond legislative action, Ocasio-Cortez has remained a forceful voice in broader political discourse. Earlier this year in January, she made headlines on Instagram with sharp criticism of President-elect Trump, characterizing his administration as the rise of twenty-first-century fascism and comparing it to Hungary under Viktor Orbán. She was particularly vocal about her concerns regarding social media platforms, accusing TikTok of collaborating with Trump and criticizing Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg for discontinuing fact-checking measures and donating to Trump's inaugural fund.
Throughout 2025, Ocasio-Cortez has continued her pattern of public activism and legislative engagement, appearing frequently across media platforms to advance progressive causes while maintaining her role as a leading voice of Democratic opposition to Republican policies. Her involvement in the Tennessee special election and her recent price gouging legislation demonstrate her focus remains on economic justice and holding power accountable.
