Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calls out transphobes at Capitol meeting

Representative. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (DN.Y.) attacked anti-trans “Libs of TikTok” creator Chaya Raichik on Capitol Hill, video released Thursday. (Watch it here till the end.)

The meeting started amicably enough as Raichik initially appeared to hide his identity as they posed together for a photo. He then told the progressive lawmaker, “I just filed an ethics complaint with your office because you lied about me in a committee hearing.”

“Actually, I didn’t, because you’re actually super transphobic and I never want to share a space with you. Thanks!” Ocasio-Cortez snapped before walking away.

A trans rights activist shared the clip, praising Ocasio-Cortez for stopping Raichik.right in front.”

You bet I didOcasio-Cortez responded on Twitter. “NYC doesn’t play with bigots and transphobes and neither do I.”

Raichik, known for her anti-LGBTQ activism, just visited the lawmaker’s office to file a complaint accusing Ocasio-Cortez of defaming her in a recent hearing. said the deputy Raichik’s support tweet from 2022 that Boston Children’s Hospital offered girls gender-affirmation hysterectomies was “false information.” A doctor at that hospital discussed the procedure on video, but did not say who was eligible.

Reports denied Raichik’s allegation, noting that the hospital does not offer the gender-affirmation procedure to anyone under 18. Applicants must also meet other criteria. The hospital also updated its language to clarify its position, the Associated Press noted.
