The comments made by Rep. Ocasio-Cortez demonstrate a lack of civility that is becoming far too common in the U.S. House of Representatives. Regardless of political party, beliefs or ideology, we need to treat all of our colleagues with respect and dignity.

Today, I delivered the letter below to @AOC, calling on her to apologize for her comments to our colleague @DanCrenshawTX before she plans her trip to Kentucky to learn how the Green New Deal could impact our Commonwealth.

Democratic socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the newest political figure everyone loves or loves to hate. From her ‘Green New Deal’ proposal to combat climate change to her clapbacks against Trump and her critics, here’s how AOC danced her way into the spotlight. USA TODAY


Kentucky congressional Rep. Andy Barr is demanding U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez apologize to a war-veteran colleague before she takes him up on his offer to visit an underground coal mine.

Barr, a Republican, told the outspoken Democratic lawmaker that her criticisms directed at U.S. Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, a former Navy SEAL, demonstrate a lack of civility.

"I urge you to apologize to our colleague prior to coming to visit Kentucky," Barr said in an April 12 letter provided to the Courier Journal.

Corbin Trent, a spokesman for Ocasio-Cortez, said their office has received the correspondence.

"Luckily, Kentucky has open borders," Trent told the Courier Journal. "If we decided to go to Kentucky to visit with coal miners, which we certainly hope to, and talk about the opportunities that can be brought to the rural South ... and to coal-mine country and Appalachia, that can be brought by transitioning to renewable energy and the Green New Deal, we'll be excited to do so." .........................

1. He's getting ratio'd to smithereens. lol

Republicans have NEVER had the moral high ground, but now they can't even pretend to have it anymore. They will carry the stench of Trump long after he's gone.
