Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called on white supremacists in the United States to turn their backs on hate, saying "it's not too late" and their loved ones are waiting for them.

In a Monday evening tweet, Ocasio-Cortez directly appealed to "all of America's men and women falling in the grips of white supremacy."

Ocasio-Cortez also included a video of her denouncing white supremacy and blasting President Donald Trump as a racist, pointing out that Trump's rhetoric referring to "invasions" and "infestations" overlaps with those used by white supremacists.

Ocasio-Cortez's speech came after two mass shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio in the course of 24 hours over the weekend that killed 31 people.

Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called on white supremacists in the United States to turn their backs on hate, saying "it's not too late" and their loved ones are waiting for them.

In a Tuesday evening tweet, Ocasio-Cortez directly appealed to "all of America's men and women falling in the grips of white supremacy."

"Come back, it's not too late," she said.

The New York congresswoman went on: "You have neighbors and loved ones waiting, holding space for you. And we will love you back."

But she also pleaded with people who may be "radicalized in a funnel of vitriol," and tried reminding them of the families they leave behind as they are consumed by hate.

"There is a mother waiting for you, I know it. I know there's a teacher waiting for you, saying, 'What happened to my kid? What happened to my friend?'" Ocasio-Cortez said. "And we will always be here and hold space for you to come back. We will love you back. You are not too far gone."

Ocasio-Cortez's speech came after two mass shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio in the course of 24 hours over the weekend that killed 31 people. In the case of El Paso, the shooting suspect posted a hate-filled anti-immigrant manifesto claiming "a Hispanic invasion of Texas" was underway.

Federal investigators are treating the massacre in El Paso that ultimately killed 22 people as an act of domestic terrorism.
