House Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY, and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., lashed out at Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough Friday after she rejected a progressive-backed proposal to include a federal minimum wage hike in President Biden's $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package.
"I think the parliamentarian was wrong on this call, and I -- when you hear the arguments put forth by not just [Sen. Bernie Sanders’] team, but overall, you know, I think this was, I think this was a really wrong decision, even just on its merits," Ocasio-Cortez told reporters on Friday. When asked if she felt MacDonough should be fired, the New York lawmaker said, "All options should be on the table."More Related News
