AOC rips into Mitch McConnell for sending the Senate home for the holidays:

"He broke the Senate while hospitals no longer have beds to house the sick. He broke the Senate while 30 million Americans are on the brink of evictions."

AOC: "Our country is going hungry, on the week before Thanksgiving. And the Senate broke. I don't care what party you are, it is an abandonment of our responsibilities."

AOC: "The Senate majority leader wasn't concerned about other people's money when he authorized a $4 trillion. leveraged bailout for Wall Street in March... It is only when we are talking about relief working people... that all of a sudden we can't pay for any of these things."

AOC: "So, if there's anything I have left to say – because I want to know if there's anyone out there listening – its that if you are are a working family, if you're struggling to get the food that you need, if you feel like you're on the brink of eviction. We see you."

AOC: "What I ask from the Senate, and what I ask from our Republican colleagues in the Senate; is to act as if you were the one that was going hungry. Act as if you were getting evicted from your house.

Act with that urgency."
