"Ocasio-Cortez is working with other liberal members and youth climate activists to expand the scope of a select committee on climate change that Nancy Pelosi wants to relaunch if elected speaker."

And does that get her their votes for Speaker?

That's a really big deal. I know a half-dozen very bright Millennials who are going nuts over Ocasio-Cortez.
She's their voice in government now... and they don't even live in her district. (Not to mention she's not even taken her seat yet) It will be interesting to see where all of this goes...
