AOC on Being Called a ‘B*tch’: Rep. ‘Yoho Gave Permission to Use that Language’ Against Other Women

‘Dehumanizing language is not new’

EXCERPT:

OCASIO-CORTEZ: “Now, what I am here to say is that this harm that Mr. Yoho levied -- tried to levy against me, was not just an incident directed at me, but when you do that to any woman, what Mr. Yoho did was give permission to other men to do that to his daughters. He — in using that language, in front of the press, he gave permission to use that language against his wife, his daughters, women in his community.”
