U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., outraged LGBTQ advocates in her Queens district last week after she suggested renaming a local post office that honors a woman who co-founded the first organization for parents of gay and lesbian children in 1973 and her husband, according to reports.

"Is it that she doesn’t know our history?" former New York City Council member Daniel Dromm said to the New York Daily News. "Did they not check to see who the post office is named after right now? Does she not know who Jeanne Manford was?"

Dromm, who helped get the post office named for Jeanne and Jules Manford five years ago, before Ocasio-Cortez was elected, said a name change would "erase our history."


So preserving history is important... so long as the Alphabet People agree. Amirite?

There is their history and there is your history. One is important and one is to be trash canned.

why the hell are we wasting money naming post offices? It should just be Queens Post office #1 or XXXXX St Post office.

Lorena Borjas was a trans Mexican-American. Jeanne Manford was a white activist mother of a gay son.

Lorena Borjas has the higher score. Out with the old, in with the new.
