Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) presiding over the House of Representatives (screengrab)
The US women's national soccer team received an invitation from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez after their stunning Friday victory over France in the quarter-finals of the World Cup.
Superstar player Megan Rapinoe scored twice in USA's 2 - victory.
Both Rapinoe and teammate Ali Krieger have rejected invitations from President Donald Trump.
"It may not be the White House, but we’d be happy to welcome [Rapinoe] and the entire #USWMNT for a tour of the House of Representatives anytime they’d like," Ocasio-Cortez tweeted.
Rapinoe replied, "consider it done, AOC."
