Amid her zeal to save the world with the Green New Deal, Rep. ÂAlexandria Ocasio-Cortez has Âignored residents in her own Bronx back yard.
“I thought AOC would be our savior, but that’s not the case,†complained Roxanne Delgado, a local activist who said she has tried for months to get in touch with the congresswoman for help saving an animal shelter and to clean up parks in the district.
Delgado, 40, says she has made numerous calls to Ocasio-Cortez’s offices in Washington and Queens and sent a barrage of tweets after the freshman lawmaker encouraged residents during a recent visit to a Bronx public library to hit her up on social media.
But she’s heard nothing back.
“NO email or contact on @AOC’s page except DC number which has full #voicemail and no one picks up,†Delgado tweeted on Monday.
