AOC Opens Up About Sexual Assault & Right to Choose Belief

(warning: distressing)

When we talk about choice, it’s because there are countless women with similar stories to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s.

While appearing in Wisconsin this past weekend, the NY rep shared a deeply personal account of a time she was assaulted and had to consider her options in the event of an unwanted pregnancy.

The right to choose is not just another political issue or a moral position, it’s an essential, life-altering right that people need in this country. That self-determination is what is on the line this November.
