Not sure why you are being downvoted. That is exactly correct.

I didn't downvote OP but assumed that OP's comment was meant to be a sarcastic response to something that AOC wrote about the matter. Sarcasm is rarely a constructive contribution.

I wasn’t trying to be sarcastic, I was trying to be explicit by restating.

There’s not an extra $3 billion lying around to invest in New York City for other purposes because Amazon canceled the deal.

As it turns out, there really was an AOC-ism of that nature.
