Making her primetime Democratic National Convention debut, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York on Monday night gave a rousing call to arms to elect nominee Vice President Kamala Harris and "deliver on an ambitious agenda for the people."
"We choose a new path, and open the door to a new day, one that is for the people and by the people," she said.
In a marked departure from her 90-second introduction of Sen. Bernie Sanders at the 2020 DNC, Ocasio-Cortez was given a primetime speaking slot on the first night of this year's DNC. Ocasio-Cortez, who was first elected in 2018, reminded Democrats of her own working-class roots, saying Republicans want her to "go back to bartending."
"Ever since I got elected, Republicans have attacked me by saying I should go back to bartending," she said. "But let me tell you, I'm happy to, any day of the week, because there is nothing wrong with working for a living. Imagine having leaders in the White House who understand that, leaders like Kamala and Tim."
