纽约民主党众议员亚历山大·奥卡西奥-科尔特斯(Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez)表示，她对共和党众议员马乔里·泰勒·格林(Marjorie Taylor Greene)的共和党(R-Ga)感到担忧。在格林与奥卡西奥-科尔特斯发生激烈对抗的事件后，众议院议长南希·佩洛西建议伦理委员会对格林的行为进行调查。
《华盛顿邮报》首次报道格林在周三晚上的一次投票中与奥卡西奥-科尔特斯对峙，反复喊她的名字，问她为什么支持黑人的命也是命和其他“恐怖分子和反法西斯分子”
奥卡西奥-科尔特斯周五对记者说:“是的，不，她确实一直在讨论这个问题，但这不是一件事，所以我担心她对现实的看法。”
格林认为，她只是想辩论奥卡西奥-科尔特斯。
“我不知道她为什么需要安全感。她不应该有争论的问题，”格林说。“我和AOC谈过，说你需要和我讨论绿色新政。她应该能够向美国人民捍卫它。”
格林补充说:“她不需要提交违反道德规范的文件，也不需要做任何她正在做的事情，这种反应就像一个孩子一样。”。
但是佩洛西称这次爆发“有损于一名在美国国会任职的人的尊严”，称“它在成员中造成了恐惧和创伤。”
格林的办公室没有立即回应对奥卡西奥-科尔特斯声明的置评请求。
格林对这种争议并不陌生。
一月就职后不久，众议员柯里·布什，民主党人。她一再要求格林戴上面具，对此，泰勒·格林和她的工作人员“严厉斥责”了她，一名工作人员大喊:“停止煽动对黑人的命也是命的暴力。”
格林声称她实际上是那个被“痛斥”的人。
这一事件促使密苏里州的民主党人要求她的办公室远离格林的办公室。
在另一个事件中，格林是被剥夺了委员会的任务此前，2018年和2019年的社交媒体帖子和视频显示，她似乎支持针对佩洛西的暴力行为，该帖子现已被删除，并暗示桑迪胡克和帕克兰学校枪击事件是有预谋的。
格林还与众议员玛丽·纽曼、迪尔争吵过。跨性别美国人的权利。
纽曼指责格林在众议院就反歧视平等法案进行辩论时发表了仇视变性者的言论，当时纽曼提到了她的变性女儿。纽曼随后开始在她的办公室外展示一面跨性别骄傲旗，在格林的办公室对面，格林贴上了自己的牌子，上面写着:“有两种性别:男性和女性”相信科学!""
奥卡西奥-科尔特斯以前也是共和党愤怒的对象。她是在国会大厦外被骚扰去年，佛罗里达州的前众议员泰德·约霍(Ted Yoho)称她为“该死的婊子”。
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez questions Marjorie Taylor Greene's grip on reality following outburst
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., said she was concerned about Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's, R-Ga., "perceptions of reality" on Friday, following an episode in which Greene aggressively confronted Ocasio-Cortez, prompting House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to suggest an Ethics Committee investigation into Greene's behavior.
The Washington Post first reportedthat Greene confronted Ocasio-Cortez Wednesday night during a vote, shouting her first name repeatedly and asking her why she supported Black Lives Matter and other "terrorists and antifa."
"Yeah, no it's--she does keep discussing this, but it's not a thing, and so I'm concerned about her perceptions of reality," Ocasio-Cortez said to reporters Friday.
Greene contends she simply wants to debate Ocasio-Cortez.
"I don't know why she needs security. She shouldn't have a problem debating," Greene said. "I was talking to AOC saying you need to debate me about the Green New Deal. She should be able to defend it to the American people."
"She doesn't need to file ethics violations or whatever she's doing, that's reacting like a child," Greene added.
But Pelosi called the outburst "beneath the dignity of a person serving in the Congress of the United States," saying "it’s causing fear and trauma among members."
Greene's office didn't immediately respond to a request for comment about Ocasio-Cortez's statement.
Greene is no stranger to controversies like this.
Shortly after taking office in January, Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., said she repeatedly asked Greene to put her mask on, to which Taylor Greene and her staff responded by "berating" her, with one staffer yelling, “Stop inciting violence with Black Lives Matter."
Greene alleged she was actually the one who was "berated."
The episode prompted the Missouri Democrat to request her office be moved farther away from Greene's.
In another incident, Greene wasstripped of her committee assignmentsafter social media posts and videos from 2018 and 2019 showed her appearing to support violence against Pelosi in a post that is now deleted and suggesting that Sandy Hook and Parkland school shootings were staged.
Greene has also sparred with Rep. Marie Newman, D-Ill., over rights for transgender Americans.
Newman accused Greene of making transphobic comments during debate on the House floor over the anti-discrimination Equality Act, when Newman referenced her transgender daughter. Newman then started displaying a transgender pride flag outside her office, across the hall from Greene's, who put up her own sign that read: "There are TWO genders: Male and Female "Trust the Science!""
Ocasio-Cortez has also been the subject of Republican outrage before. She washarassed outside the Capitollast year by former Rep. Ted Yoho, R-Fla., who reportedly called her a "f***ing bitch" as they crossed paths.
