Ocasio-Cortez declines to rule out 2028 presidential run

Rep. Alexandria OcasioCortez said she is not ruling out a 2028 presidential bid, but stressed that her focus remains on policy goals, especially expanding healthcare access. In an interview with Fox News Digital, the New York Democrat said the most important measure of success is whether she can help guarantee healthcare for Americans, rather than whether she holds a particular office. OcasioCortez has faced growing speculation about her future in national politics, including after remarks at a recent event in Chicago and a social media post that fueled discussion about a possible White House run. She said her ambition is to change the country, not simply to win a title.
