TX-25: Roger Williams denies AOC's allegation that he yelled at her about 'throwing urine'

WASHINGTON — New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Tuesday accused Austin Rep. Roger Williams of joining one of his GOP colleagues in yelling at her on the Capitol steps and then proceeding to “blatantly lie” about the exchange.

A Williams spokeswoman denied that the Texan yelled at Ocasio-Cortez, saying that Williams “did not participate in the exchange between Congressman Yoho and Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez, nor did he hear what was said in their conversation.”

“Any comments overheard or attributed to Congressman Williams were part of a separate conversation that he and Congressman Yoho were having,” said Heather Douglass, the spokeswoman. “Congressman Williams would have immediately condemned that type of language towards any colleague.”

Williams had previously said he had not paid attention to the dispute between Ocasio-Cortez and Yoho.
