   Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign was fined $1,500 by the   
   state last year for failing to obtain workers’ compensation   
   coverage, The Post has learned.   
      
   All employers are required under New York’s disability law to   
   buy insurance to cover disability benefits for employees.   
      
   “The employer did not have the required workers’ compensation   
   coverage from March 31, 2018, to April 30, 2018, and was issued   
   a final penalty of $1,500, which was paid,” said Workers   
   Compensation Board spokeswoman Melissa Stewart.   
      
   “This coverage is vital to ensuring workers are protected for on-   
   the-job injuries.”   
      
   The law says employers can deduct up to 60 cents per week from   
   each worker’s paycheck to help cover the cost.   
      
   “Every covered employer bears the cost of providing benefits in   
   excess of the contributions collected from employees,” the   
   agency said.   
      
   A spokesman for Ocasio-Cortez said he’s looking into the matter.
