Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) likely violated ethics laws for accepting “impermissible gifts” linked to her attendance at the Met Gala in 2021.
Ocasio-Cortez “received a series of goods and services which she did not pay for until the OCE opened this review,” according to a review issued by the House Office of Congressional Ethics on Thursday (pdf). It cited her dress—which had the slogan “TAX THE RICH” written on it—hair styling, makeup, and transportation.
