United States Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez attended the 2021 Met Gala while wearing a white, designer dress with the words "Tax the Rich" written on it in red font. 15 months later, the celebrity-politician is now being investigated after conservative groups filed complaints against her for accepting expensive Met Gala tickets, allegedly breaking House rules. One complaint by the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC) reports that AOC willingly received the tickets from a table sponsor for herself and her boyfriend.
