AOC Fires Back at Republican Who Told Her to ‘Educate Yourself,’ Suggests He’s in Congress to Boost Corporate Profits
"Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) hit back at Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-SC), who said she is ignorant about fossil fuels.
The House debated oil and gas drilling on federal land Thursday night. Republicans introduced a bill that would require the federal government to approve more drilling on government property before drawing from the nation’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve in non-emergency situations.
Ocasio-Cortez proposed an amendment that would impose certain limits on oil and gas leases.
“We know that leasing more land to fossil fuel companies does not guarantee that gas prices will drop,” Ocasio-Cortez said on the House floor.
“As we’ve seen this past year, even when these companies have record profits they do not pass along those savings to their consumers. What leasing more land does do, however, is guarantee that we will accelerate the devastating impact of climate change.”"
