- Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, also known as AOC, has publicly endorsed a nationwide protest aimed at shutting down ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) activities.
- The protest, described as a “shutdown,” is planned to occur on a Friday, although the exact date is not specified in the content.
- Despite her support for the protest, AOC announced that her congressional office will continue to operate and remain open on the day of the protest.
- Her decision to keep the office open signifies a distinction between supporting the movement and directly participating in the shutdown protest.
- This stance reflects a balance between showing solidarity with the protestors while maintaining her office’s governmental responsibilities.
- The move may be interpreted as a way to advocate for change while fulfilling her duties as a congressional representative.
