Ocasio-Cortez fires back at Ivanka: "A living wage isn't a gift, it's a right"

“I’ve spent a lot of time traveling around this country over the last four years,” Trump continued. “People want to work for what they get, so I think this idea of a guaranteed minimum is not something most people want. They want the ability to be able to secure a job. They want the ability to live in a country where there’s the potential for upward mobility.”

On Tuesday, Ocasio-Cortez responded to Trump’s dismissal of a guaranteed living wage.

“As a person who actually worked for tips & hourly wages in my life, instead of having to learn about it 2nd-hand, I can tell you that most people want to be paid enough to live,” Ocasio-Cortez posted on Twitter. “A living wage isn’t a gift, it’s a right. Workers are often paid far less than the value they create.”
