AOC expressed a great deal of frustration over the NYPD receiving raises.

GALLAGHER: Alexandria Ocasio Cortez is arguably one of the most popular members of Congress in the country. Very high profile democrat she’s young, she’s charismatic, the Left loves her. Democrats keep saying we dont want to defend the police. Perish the thought. We support police. Wink Wink. They don’t support police. Consider what happened to the NYPD. They haven’t had a raise. The rank and file officers. The men and women with a badge in NYC haven’t had a raise in 7 years so Eric Adams comes along. He is a former cop. He knows how heroic law enforcement is. He understands they are underpaid. He understands they put their lives at risk especially in NYC lately and they are proposing a raise. AOC is livid. Listen to what this despicable Democrat says about a pay increase for the men and women for the New York Police department.

OCASIO-CORTEZ: We are now at a point where officially, most officers are paid more than a teacher with a masters degree serving these same kids involved in same incidents. We are defunding safety, defunding our public schools, defunding our public pools, parks, libraries, when we are taking all of those resources and demanding that every single department – except the militarized one – be cut, we are sending a message about who and what we care about.
