#FightFor15 protesters crash media filing room at #DemDebate

Not unexpectedly, there were plenty of protesters outside of tonight’s #DemDebate venue in Milwaukee doing what they could to catch the attention of the national media.

It was cold out there, though, and all of the reporters were inside in the media filing room setting up for the debate itself. Wouldn’t it make more sense to protest inside?

This should liven up the proceedings a bit.

Do they have to grab their seats before the debate starts? Because these are the people counting on either Sanders or Clinton to make a $15 minimum wage a reality.
