Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) raged at Republicans on Tuesday as the House debated the Protection of Women and Girls Act.
The bill, which aims to protect women’s sports leagues by keeping male athletes who identify as females from competing against women, passed the House with only two Democrats voting in support of it.
Ocasio-Cortez claimed on the House floor that Republicans support women “bleeding out in parking lots across the country, standing there, allowing us to die.”
She said that Republicans were “pretend[ing]” to “care about women” because they want to conduct “genital examinations into little girls in this country, in the so-called name of attacking trans girls.”
“The majority right now says there’s no place in this bill that says it opens up for genital examinations,” she claimed. “There’s no enforcement mechanism in this bill. And when there is no enforcement mechanism, you open the door to every enforcement mechanism.”
“Trans girls are girls,” she claimed. “And for all the folks that are so concerned, thank you for your concern about women for the first time that I’ve seen, I don’t know about y’all, I don’t know who’s been to gym class lately, but girls, even if you only believe in two genders, I’ve played co-ed sports all the time.”

“But what this also opens the door for is for women to try to perform a very specific kind of femininity for the very kind of men who are drafting this bill, and to open up questioning of who is a woman because of how we look, how we present ourselves, and yes, what we choose to do with our bodies,” she added.
She claimed that bigots and sexual assaulters loved the bill, along with CEOs.
She claimed CEOs loved the bill “because Los Angeles is on fire right now and this is the number one priority this majority has.”
It’s unclear what she was talking about.
