Trivia
In 2019, Time magazine referred to her as the "second most talked-about politician in America" (behind President Donald Trump). According to Gallup, Ocasio-Cortez easily had the highest name recognition of any freshman congressperson in recent history, with over 71% awareness.

Quotes
There's always this talk about division within the Democratic Party, ideological differences. But I actually think they're generational differences. Because the America we grew up in is nothing like the America our parents or our grandparents grew up in.
