Queens resident and New York State Assembly candidate Ramses Frías says the Squad member has 'never set foot' in area now plagued by migrant crime, prostitution.
An outraged resident in 'Squad' member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Queens, N.Y., district has launched a bid for office as migrant crime and prostitution overrun his community. 'We've become sort of this epicenter of crime and prostitution and illegal street vending. It's taken over many streets,' Ramses Frías told 'Fox & Friends' Monday. 'It goes all the way from Corona, through Elmhurst and into Jackson Heights.
These alleged sex workers operate during all hours of the day, even as families walk by with their children in strollers, and often hang out in front of area supermarkets. Prostitution is against the law in New York. In response to the video, Ocasio-Cortez issued a statement to 'Fox & Friends': 'What we are seeing here is the result of anti-immigrant policies that deny immigrants proper work permits and vending licenses, and drive them into the shadows of undignified conditions.
