The Claim

 Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez opposes daylight saving because it accelerates climate change.

Emerging story

Many Twitter users circulated a statement attributed to Congressman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), in which she expressed her opposition to daylight saving time because of its negative impact on climate change.

Misbar’s Analysis

This is not a real news article, and New York Congresswoman AOC hasn't made that statement. In fact, NPC Daily is a satirical entertainment website that does not publish any geniune content.

This website confirms this with a text described below the article that is being circulated, and also on its "About" page.
