'A group of young environmental activists occupied House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosiās office with a list of demands, including one that Democrats support what theyāre calling a āGreen New Deal.ā
Activists began their āsit inā at Pelosiās Capitol Hill office on Tuesday morning, wearing matching t-shirts and holding yellow signs with slogans such as, āWe have twelve years. Whatās your plan?ā
The sit in is part of the Sunrise Movementās plan to create an āarmy of young people to stop climate change and create millions of good jobsā
Activists were joined by New York Congresswoman-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who backed a āGreen New Dealā during her campaign. Ocasio-Cortez called for a āGreen New Dealā to create a ā100% renewable energy system and a fully modernized electrical grid by 2035.ā
āHow is @NancyPelosi going to respond to the young people occupying her office for a #GreenNewDeal right now?ā
A better question is how is Pelosi going to react to the new Liberal Socialist Darling showing up in her office wearing a matching T-Shirt with a bunch of young college-age protestors and staging a sit-in.
Bwuhahahaha.........
I guess Ocasio-Cortez has not learned yet that she can get more accomplished as a newly elected NY Congresswoman working within the system, perhaps authoring that bill and pushing it through Congress, than as a member of a youth protest group laying siege to Pelosi's office...
