Organizers planned the event to"demand that our tax money stop fossil-fueling endless war, and start funding healthcare, green jobs and infrastructure, other climate adaptation measures, and housing."As part of a series of actions this spring, climate activists rallied and marched in New York City on Monday"to demand that our tax money stop being used to fund endless war and environmental destruction.
"We recognize that the people who are most often placed in harm's way from armed conflict are also the people who have and will continue to face the brunt of the climate crisis,"the XR event webpage."In this moment, after two years of Covid-19, our tax money should be funding social services that benefit the communities most impacted by the climate crisis and most affected by decades of systemic underfunding.
The action outside the IRS is part of XR's Spring Rebellion, which is a"massive, sustained civil disobedience campaign in NYC" from last Wednesday through Saturday.
