Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) violated House Ethics rules after she attended the 2021 Met Gala in her infamous “Tax the Rich” dress, the House Ethics Committee ruled Friday, ordering her to repay a fashion designer nearly $3,000 for the gown.
The committee found that Ocasio-Cortez accepted “impermissible gifts” during her participation in the ritzy event, including her custom-made dress and the rented luxury shoes and jewelry she wore at the gala. The fair market value of the rented clothing and accessories Ocasio-Cortez wore to the event clocked in at $3,700, but the New York lawmaker ultimately repaid those vendors under $1,000—payments she made months after the event and only after one of her stiffed vendors threatened to file a legal complaint against her campaign, the committee report notes.

Aaaaaaannd when she sells it with a signature premium attached to it who gets the money?
The article states that most of the responsibility was with her staff.
2 problems:
Firstly, this has been going on for years rather than solved withing 30 days of the complaint. The staff Can’t be that Useless, can they?
Secondly, Whenever My company has ANY NON RESOLVED issue I, Me, Prime Jackass #1 solves it directly ASAP. I is OUR name on the Letterhead.
^^^ never type B-4 coffee in the morning ^^^
She will declare bankruptcy and insolvency with a lot of FAKE CREDITORS that she owes a ton of money to.
This is a joke right?
When she slithered into DC she was broke and wanted to know when they were going to get a check. Six years later she has over 20 million dollars. Just goes to show crime does, indeed, pay.
The committee voted unanimously, 5 Dem and 5 GOP. That’s decent.
The $2,700 she owes is for the RENTAL of the dress. Which would suggest that it is worth several times that. Well, to someone.
I haven’t seen a response from AOC, wonder whether she will whine (against her own party, no less) or just shut up and pay quietly.
That’s rich. Dissing “the rich” while wearing a $2,700 gown.
Par for the course for a democrat:
– Hang out with the rich, and make up for it by wearing some stupid virtue signaling dress that says “Tax the Rich” while supporting laws that screw the middle class.
– Claim to be a tough street girl from the Bronx when you’re really just a spoiled rich kid from Westchester.
– Carry on about “white privilege” when you’ve only dated white guys your entire life.
Remember when President Trump questioned how congress critters became millionaires on their salaries? And POOF just like that not another word.
the makeup looks so natural!
She probably violates “ethics rules” with almost every breath she takes…
How about a $11,000 fine for exposing her face in public?
That’s so unfair. Now I suppose you’ll want me to stop stealing from the Congressional tip jar.

This is an error, the dress was supposed to say ^Tax the Bitch” referring to any woman with a net worth above hers.
Ethics? oh please all ethics were buried under the White rear concrete Rose garden.
