NYC DSA Congressional Candidate sparks criticism over social media comments

"Claire Valdez, who won her primary...and is likely headed off to Congress this November, she put out a tweet today saying that her plan was to 'fight for Mexico'"

Libby Emmons slams Valdez's stance, arguing that an elected representative in the U.S. Congress should prioritize representing local constituents—such as those in Brooklyn—rather than focusing on foreign political agendas or continuous political infighting.
