On September 20th, Congress gets back to DC. And from there we only have one week until they're set to vote on bills that could be the largest climate investment this country has ever seen. That's why we're mobilizing to take action and make sure Democrats pass a bold climate agenda while they vote for the reconciliation package: a fully funded Civilian Climate Corps and bold investment in renewable energy, public housing, transit, and schools. We will demonstrate that we will not stop, we will not back-down, we will not quit, until we win the first major legislative victory for our movement.
Join us at Pershing Square in Downtown Los Angeles on Friday, September 24th from 3 - 5 pm for the Youth Climate Strike! The Strike is 24 hours, from 10 am on the 24th to 10 am on the 25th, but Sunrise LA will be doing a teach-in and other activities from 3 - 5 pm. Last fall, we voted in record turnout and elected a new wave of progressives, protected the House, flipped the Senate, and delivered Joe Biden a decisive victory. Now is our moment to demand Democrats deliver for our generation, so join us in the streets. Congress: Bring It Home!
