In response to COVID-19, the Ocasio-Cortez Campaign is providing New Yorkers the resources and information they need, now. NY-14 is one of - if not the - hardest hit districts in the country. We are using our resources to provide direct relief, including meals, masks, and financial support to the community. See all the ways we are helping here. Ocasio-Cortez is a self-described democratic socialist who had previously volunteered on Vermont Senator Bernie Sander’s presidential campaign and got his endorsement for her primary race. In her campaign video, which has been viewed more than two million times, Ocasio-Cortez talks about being a political outsider who wants to create change.
