House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) on Tuesday called on Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Fla.) to apologize both personally to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and publicly in a speech on the House floor for calling her “disgusting” and a “fucking bitch.”
The Hill reported earlier Tuesday that Yoho had confronted Ocasio-Cortez on the Capitol steps the day before and berated her for recently suggesting that poverty and unemployment are driving a spike in crime in New York City during the coronavirus pandemic.
He told her that she was “disgusting” and “out of your freaking mind, ” and as he walked away, Yoho added: “Fucking bitch.”
Hoyer called Yoho’s behavior “despicable” and “unacceptable.”
