‘She (AOC) doesn’t come over here. She has totally neglected us.’
The district of Progressive NY congresswoman and Squad member Alexandria Occasio-Cortez, popularly known as AOC, has become a crime-ridden red-light district where legitimate business owners and respectable citizens have to flee.
Roosevelt Avenue in Queens, once known as a community of hardworking immigrants, has devolved into a trash-filled area characterized by prostitution and illegal scam businesses, to the chagrin of people who have lived in the neighborhood for years.
Ramses Frias, a local activist, is angry at the deterioration of his neighborhood and told Fox News, “It feels like Bangkok with women outside locations and pulling men off the street.”
However, AOC has not been seen in the neighborhood where she once focused her campaign since August 2023, when she sharply criticized law enforcement for cracking down on illegal vendors.
Frias said, “She does not visit this area. This is actually an area where she campaigned the hardest, and a lot of people went out [to vote] for her, and she doesn’t come over here. She has totally neglected us.”
