AOC to Group of Drag Queens: ‘You Are Patriots and I’m So Proud of You’

EXCERPT:

OCASIO-CORTEZ: “The people who change what people think are artists and drag queens, and let’s not forget who threw that first brick at Stonewall.”

UNKNOWN: “Yes!”

OCASIO-CORTEZ: “You know, that is what led to us passing the Equality Act in the House in this term, marriage equality. It starts with you. I mean, you’re patriots. You are. You are. You are patriots and I’m so proud of you all. I’m so proud to live in this country with you and with your mother and with all of us as family.”
