Democrat senators to stage all-night session of climate change speeches
http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2014/mar/10/democrat-senators-all-night-climate-speechesMore than two dozen Democratic senators will take to the Senate floor on Monday for an all-night session of speeches on climate change.
The marathon session will get underway after the last vote on Monday night and could last until 9am on Tuesday, Senate staff said.
The high visibility all-nighter was organised by a new initiative, the Climate Action Task Force, which is trying to galvanise support for Barack Obama's climate change agenda.
The Senators said they would be tweeting throughout the night, using the hashtag #Up4Climate.
