Support Student Climate Leaders
In the coming days, thousands of young people across our region are going to be taking the streets to demand bold action to confront the climate crisis. On Friday, September 20, young people are leading a march to the Capitol to demand a green new deal, respect for indigenous land, environmental justice, protection of biodiversity and sustainable agriculture. Then on Monday, September 23rd, young people are joining people of all ages for a historic mobilization to #ShutDownDC for climate justice.
The New York City Department of Education has announced that it will be allowing students to participate in the climate strike without receiving a penalty, truancy, or unexcused absence on their records. Can you write a letter to DC area school officials telling them to allow students to participate in this historic mobilization without being disciplined?
