Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-NY) reportedly retained a talent agency and was in talks earlier this year about potentially writing a book, The Daily Beast reported. 

The book project never came to fruition and it is unclear if the firebrand freshman lawmaker is still working with the talent agency, Creative Artists Agency. However the book talks illustrate the national attention the young lawmaker has garnered after just a few short months in Congress.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), another prominent House freshman, announced earlier this year she has a book deal.
