Original Note:
Ocasio-Cortez did not tweet that message. ProPublica maintains a "Politwoops" archive that tracks tweets deleted by politicians. The tweet from the Facebook post does not appear on the page tracking Ocasio-Cortez's deleted tweets. AOC addressed the fictitious tweet: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/07/14/fact-check-aoc-didnt-tweet-keeping-economy-shut-down/5352149002/ https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-aoc-tweet/fact-check-alexandria-ocasio-cortez-did-not-tweet-that-governors-should-keep-businesses-closed-to-prevent-trumps-re-election-idUSKBN23V32A https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/jun/23/viral-image/no-aoc-didnt-tweet-about-closing-businesses-until-/
