A Facebook Live video from 2017 just surfaced, showing Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez admitting that she got her goddaughter into a public charter school in New York City. I am proud of her for helping a child find a good education and happy for her goddaughter for getting into a public charter school. But Ocasio-Cortez should step up and fight for educational options for all families. Instead, she has encouraged efforts to limit access to school choice for others.
.@AOC: “My goddaughter, I got her into a charter school like maybe a block or two down”
