Sunrise Movement Green New Deal Tour – Washington, DC
This event is sold out. You can register to tune into the livestream here.
Join us in Washington DC for our final special stop of the Road to a Green New Deal! At this Tour Stop, we’ll explore what the pain of the climate crisis looks like here in DC and for the country, and what the promise of the Green New Deal means for us, too. We’ll hear from political champions, and community and movement leaders, using multimedia presentations and regular conversations. We’ll set the roadmap to 2021 and beyond, discovering what the GND means for each of us– and what action we’ll take to make it happen.
DC is leading the fight for a Green New Deal – join us.
