Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez — Most popularly known as AOC (and to her childhood friends, ‘Sandy’), the politician became the youngest woman to serve in the United States Congress at 29 years old, and currently serves as the U.S. Representative for New York’s 14th congressional district… So, yeah, you could say she is making some pretty big political moves!

Today, the Democratic Socialists of America member supports progressive policies like tuition-free public college and the cancellation of outstanding student debt. She also wants to end the privatization of prisons and enact better gun-control policies.

Her speeches are always powerful and interesting… and did we forget to mention she always looks picture-perfect while giving them? Because she really does!

That’s right, in addition to having some serious knowledge, the political superstar has also got some serious style, and we would be remiss not to showcase it!

Swipe through the gallery to view AOC take political action in style.
