Biden has ‘exceeded expectations’ as progressives thought he’d be ‘much more conservative,’ AOC says
NEW YORK Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez gave a ringing endorsement to the Biden administration's performance and progressive policies as he reaches his first 100 days in office.
"The Biden Administration and President Biden have definitely exceeded expectations that progressives had," Rep said during a on Friday.
“Because we know – I don’t want us to think that our work on Covid is done because we pressed the American rescue plan in January, we’re going to need a lot of support and a lot of people are going to need a lot of continued support.”
Another focal point for Biden’s presidency will come in how he handles infrastructure legislation in what he’s called the American Jobs Plan.
“We’re in the process of shaping the infrastructure bill, but I think the infrastructure bill will be a key indicator if the administration is keeping or raising its ambitions or if that [American Rescue Plan] was a one and done situation, and we’re going smaller,” she told constituents.
