AOC demurs when grilled on why she hasn’t visited border under Biden

By Ryan King
Published Sep. 5, 2023

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) — who embarked on multiple border visits during the Trump administration — was evasive when pressed on why she hasn’t visited the border during President Biden’s time in office.

The left-wing rep said that she is focused on the ongoing migrant crisis in the city and plans to make the trek in the future when asked by the New York Times why she hasn’t gone to the border under Biden.

“This is something that we’re actively planning on. What I have done is tours of our New York-area facilities. Right now, this crisis is in our own backyard,” she told the Times.

The news outlet repeatedly grilled her about not making the trek, prompting her to insist that it was in the works.

“This crisis is right here in our own backyard, I have absolutely prioritized having that visitation presence,” she replied.

She’ll visit the border as much as the “border czar” does
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
