My last name is Ocasio-Cortez. Full stop. That’s my name. No, you can’t say “Cortez.” I’ve never used that in my life. “Cortez” is referring to someone else. Even if they‘re trying to be rude + wrong, my dad’s last name was Ocasio anyway. (His name was hyphenated too, though.)

For the curious, in Latinx culture children take *both* their parents‘ names. It’s not a “progressive, new thing.” It’s just how some names work. PR hyphenates, others mark differently. Your last name = the families that came together to make you. AOC is also fine though :)

Your problem is you want respect without earning it. You have done nothing. You lucked out because the guy you beat was too lazy to campaign. (kinda like Hillary huh?) You will be gone soon and no one will remember your name then either. #protip #earnit

The problem with modern immigrants is they don’t want to assimilate to their new culture. They want to force their culture on their new hosts. Old immigrants were grateful and wanted to adapt as quickly as possible.

Ur such a liar. If a guest on a show calls u Cortez that's not Fox news saying it incorrectly. If it's up to the interviewer to correct them when they're wrong, then why do u get so upset when ur corrected? Better yet why wont u go on a show where ur ideology is tested? #UrAfraid
