'We can have ideological differences and that’s fine. But these tactics allow a small group to force the other 200+ members into actions that the majority disagree with.'
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez shot back at “splinter” Democrats who accused her of threatening to put some of her colleagues on a list of primary election targets. Democrats in a Washington Post report released Friday claimed Ocasio-Cortez was disgruntled by a last-minute provision included in a Republican gun bill that would allow reporting of undocumented immigrants attempting to purchase guns to Immigrations and Customs Enforcement .
Ocasio-Cortez refuted the claims in a series of tweets on Saturday, claiming she “didn’t threaten a primary.” Ocasio-Cortez, who has strongly advocated for the abolishment of ICE, disapproved of the strengthened ICE reporting, which she claimed was inserted in the bill at the last minute. “What I DID say was that I had to go back to my district & share the MTR vote to explain why a pro-ICE amendment was slipped into a gun safety law,” she wrote on Twitter. “Maybe they’re mad bc I don’t believe pro-ICE expansion votes should be cast in the dark, and people deserve to know what happened.
