Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and an abortion-rights group backed a Texas primary challenger looking to unseat an anti-abortion Democrat on Thursday night, attacking his record and accusing him of wanting to "maintain the status quo" after he launched an attack ad against his opponent.
In a letter sent to progressive activists in the MoveOn advocacy group, Ocasio-Cortez took aim at Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas' 28th district for receiving an "A" rating from the National Rifle Association and opposing her Green New Deal proposal.
The abortion-rights group NARAL also accused him of launching a "dishonest" ad campaign against the progressive primary challenger Jessica Cisneros, who they dubbed "the champion who should replace him."
Rep. Cuellar released an advert earlier this week portraying Laredo-raised Cisneros as an outsider who wanted to "shut down the oil and gas industry."

The bartender steps on a lot of toes.
Rats eating their own. AOC fails to understand that the Democrat Party is an organized crime gang that does not tolerate disloyalty. With the exception of the American Revolution every Revolution eats its own.
To borrow a phrase from a Freeper : Now take off your shirt and make me a sandwich.
Give her a dance pole take off your shirt and make me a sandwich
Progressive Cisneros is leaving Cuellar in the Texas dust---
<><> Cisneros knows abortion is "the ticket" to Democrat victories, especially in Texas;
<><> Cisneros backs assisted suicide of the disabled as a back-up Democrat strategy;
But Cisneos knows a sure-fire campaign winner when she sees one: mercy killing of celebrities and movie stars.
AOC buttin’ in on the business of Texans
One month on the job and this twit killed 25,000 jobs. Now she’s running around the country flapping her jibs , meanwhile nothing is getting done in her home district. In the long run however that’s probably a good thing because everything she touches turns to crap.
The purge of the democrat party has begun.
Cuellar is gonna beat Cisneros like a rented mule.
AOC’s Green New Deal?? That is way past it’s sell-by date. The NEWEST outrage is the BLUE New Deal to save our oceans.....just ask Elizabeth Warren, who is trying to break back into the top 3 with ANYTHING that she thinks might sound catchy.
This bartender would have had to work upstairs at Miss Kitty’s Saloon...
“Cuellar of Texas’ 28th district for receiving an “A” rating from the National Rifle Association”
The NRA should never rate any marx-o-crat anything but an “F” as they will turn on them in a flash. Gillibrand comes to mind.
*** Progressive Cisneros is leaving Cuellar in the Texas dust-— ***
Cuellar, a blue dog Dem has always been popular in Texas. He is not despised by Republicans, and has brought $$$, and jobs to his district.
I have no idea who Cisneros is, but Cuellar should be safe unless there are shenanigans.
