His message resonated with the festival crowd, encouraging them to take a stand for justice amid looming threats.
Sanders ignited cheers and wasted no time diving into what he called an urgent fight for justice alongside Rep. Maxwell Frost.
The country faces some very difficult challenges, and the future of what happens to America is dependent upon your generation, Sanders shouted to the crowd of festivalgoers.
I’m here because Clairo has used her prominence to fight for women’s rights, to try to end the terrible, brutal war in Gaza.
Since January, the new administration has gutted climate initiatives, laid off key staff at environmental agencies.
