‘Not Working’: AOC Points to $600 Power Bills, Criticizes Energy Policies

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she would want the administration to succeed in lowering Americans’ energy bills, but argued that “it is not working.” She pointed to New York City, where she says some families are facing electric bills of $600 a month. What makes the comment hit is the comparison. AOC said some of those monthly power bills are as high as what some people used to pay in rent before housing costs surged.
