Left-wing activists gathered outside the office of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell Monday to promote the ‘Green New Deal,’ launching the bizarre demonstration despite the GOP lawmaker’s push to call a full Senate vote on the proposal.

The protest comes just days after McConnell said he planned to call a full vote on the ‘Green New Deal,’ sparking outrage from Sen. Chuck Schumer and others who accused the GOP of attempting to “kill” the legislation.
