Sunrise brought the demand for a Climate Debate to the front steps of the Democratic National Headquarters in Washington, D.C., blocking the locked entrance to the building with a sit-in for three days. We pushed DNC Chair Tom Perez to give voters what they deserve; an opportunity to hear each candidate’s plan to address the biggest existential threat we face. Armed with pizza, sleeping bags, and signs, Sunrisers refused to leave the steps of the DNC until they scheduled a vote for a Climate Debate at their August meeting.
