AOC blasts Biden for leaving out key issues from State of the Union

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., blasted President Biden's State of the Union address for leaving out key issues to his voting base on MSNBC Tuesday evening. 

Biden's SOTU, which spanned just over one hour, touted his administration's and European allies' crackdown against Russia. He said he did not support defunding the police, and celebrated what he believed were his economic successes. 

Ocasio-Cortez criticized Biden for "gloss[ing] over" issues such as the "crisis in education," student loan debt and immigration. 

She said, "I do think that there are some things that were left unsaid in which we’re really gonna have to work on as a party."

During the SOTU, Ocasio-Cortez said, "constituencies who have historically supported the president … perhaps haven't heard their issues spoken to in ways they wanted to hear it."

Biden said during his State of the Union address, "We need to secure our border and fix the immigration system, and if you might guess, I think we can do both." He raised technology his administration was bringing to the border, such as scanners, and stressed the importance of providing a "pathway for Dreamers."
