States led by Democrats do have higher minimum wages, paid leave, better health insurance subsidies, etc.
Under the current federal electoral system, Democrats have no power to go further. They barely got a compromised ACA passed in 2010, and the votes at the federal level have moved in Republicans' favor since then. As we just witnessed, they do not have the numbers to get paid parental leave passed.
The young and idealistic should be able to understand that AOC is not going to be able to accomplish anything on the federal level.

These are taxes that are already owed.
Why are you in favor of people cheating on their taxes?
This is what many of us politically homeless have been saying about the Dems for years. They're not here for us.
The young and idealistic see that they're not Trump and wha the bills are titled and slogans repeated on MSNBC.
But they're actively attacking working people's income. Are they giving a higher min wage? M4a? Tuition debt relief? No.
They get up at campaign time and try to put-progressive AOC but when push comes to shove, they're 90s Republicans
