WASHINGTON, D.C.  – Today, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14) launched the End Corruption Caucus alongside Representatives Jason Crow (CO-06) and Mike Levin (CA-49).

This new caucus will work to advance legislation, bring together like-minded partners, and aim to root out corruption in government, to restore the American people’s trust in their leaders.

“The influence of big money in politics is a major reason why everyday Americans struggle to trust our institutions and our work in Congress,” said Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez. “That is why I am proud to co-chair the End Corruption Caucus, alongside Congressmen Jason Crow and Mike Levin, to remove dark money and special interests from our government, shut the lobbying revolving door, and enforce accountability in all branches of government. It is time that we put Americans first and earnestly work to restore the faith and integrity of our lawmaking.”
