AOC for re-election to Congress (NY-14)
When Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez first ran for Congress in 2018, the political establishment dismissed her.
A young organizer and working-class Latina from the Bronx taking on one of the most powerful Democrats in Congress wasn’t supposed to win.
But she did.
And in the years since, AOC has become one of the clearest and most fearless voices for working people in American politics.
That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for re-election to Congress in NY-14
A Movement Leader Fighting for Working People
Before Congress, AOC worked as an educator, organizer, and bartender to help support her family after the death of her father.
Inspired by the movement Bernie Sanders helped build, she launched a grassroots campaign powered by ordinary people — not corporate PACs or billionaire donors — and shocked the political world by defeating a top Democratic incumbent.
Since arriving in Congress, she has consistently fought for bold progressive policies that put people over profit:
- Medicare for All
- A Green New Deal
- Housing justice
- Student debt cancellation
- Strong unions and worker protections
- Taxing extreme wealth
- Taking on corporate monopolies and corruption
She has also been a leading voice against endless war, attacks on immigrant communities, and corporate influence in politics.
Carrying Forward the Progressive Movement
AOC and Bernie Sanders share more than overlapping policy priorities — they share a vision of politics rooted in grassroots organizing, multiracial working-class solidarity, and taking on oligarchic power.
Together, they have helped redefine what’s politically possible in America.
From fighting for healthcare as a human right to challenging billionaire greed and building support for transformational climate action, AOC has helped carry forward the movement Bernie inspired into a new generation.
And unlike too many politicians in Washington, she has never backed down when it mattered most.
Taking on the Establishment — and Winning
AOC’s success has never come from corporate money or insider support.
It comes from organizing.
Time and again, she has shown that bold, unapologetic progressive politics can energize voters and build real power — especially among young people, working families, and communities too often ignored by the political establishment.
At a time when corporate interests and right-wing extremism are threatening democracy itself, leaders willing to fight clearly and courageously matter more than ever.
The Future We’re Building
Our Revolution was founded to transform the Democratic Party and build a government that works for the many, not the few.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez represents that fight every day in Congress.
She has helped push the national conversation toward economic justice, climate action, labor rights, and democracy reform — while continuing to organize alongside movements on the ground.
We’re proud to stand with her once again.
When we organize, we win. ✊
