Socialist superstar Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) claimed on Tuesday American workers rely on illegal aliens crossing our border “to survive” while she drummed up support for Senate amnesty measures.

“We just lived through one, almost two years now, of a pandemic… where our country relied on undocumented people to survive,” she said, not acknowledging how inexpensive labor drives down wages for American citizens.

Ocasio-Cortez continued to claim illegal aliens were employed during the pandemic by American companies to perform essential tasks, such as stocking grocery shelves and performing elder care.

“Who else was sanitizing our buildings, who else was caring for our elders, who else was harvesting our food, who else was stocking our shelves except immigrant labor in our country?” she asked.

Despite border patrol agents encountering 164,303 migrants along the southwest border in October before their being released into the interior of the United States, flooding the American economy with inexpensive labor while hiking rent prices, Ocasio-Cortez demanded millions of illegal immigrants be granted amnesty.
