‘They need to pick up the phone’: AOC, Sanders on efforts to end the Congress stalemate

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized negotiations to end the government shutdown, saying that Republicans “need to pick up a phone.”

“They need to pick up a phone, Katilan. They need to pick up a phone,” Ocasio-Cortez said in a CNN Town Hall on Wednesday, dismissing Speaker Mike Johnson’s argument that Democrats must accept a clean continuing resolution passed by House Republicans last month. #CNN #News
