X-Subject: Ocasio-Cortez: Illegal Aliens Are Why Americans Survived Coronavirus Pandemic
Bytes: 3184

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) claimed during a recent interview that 
the reason Americans survived the COVID-19 pandemic was because of illegal 
aliens.

AOC made the remarks during an interview with Maria Hinojosa on Latino USA 
while talking about the subject of illegal immigration.

“These are human beings, but they are also assets to the United States of 
America,” AOC said. “Now, when I move to the economic case, I want to say 
first that, yes, it is fraught, you know, because it is painful to see 
sometimes people only talk about the economic case because we’re more than 
just a labor force. We’re more than just a people to be exploited.”

Ocasio-Cortez said that people who vote on the issue of illegal immigration 
are not compassionate and do not see the “humanity” in people.

“And so if you want to be hard-nosed about it, understand that America’s 
immigration force and our community of immigrants, including and especially 
the millions of undocumented people in this country, are why America has 
prospered, especially why we survived the COVID-19 pandemic,” she claimed.

“And for all of the people who cast a vote based on grocery prices and 
inflation, if you think your groceries are expensive now, wait until the 
farms are empty,” she said. “If you think houses are expensive now, wait 
until there’s no one building them.”

The socialist lawmaker claimed that America not accepting illegal aliens into 
the country was “the definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face.”
