Join us at the Tour Launch of the Road to a Green New Deal! At this Tour Stop, we'll explore what the pain of the climate crisis looks like for Boston and the nation, and what the promise of the Green New Deal will look like, too.

We'll hear from political champions, including Senator Markey, Representative Pressley, and Boston City Councilor Wu, and community and movement leaders, including Reverend Mariama White Hammond, 32BJ SEIU, and the students who led the Boston Youth Climate Strike.

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.
