Protestors interrupted Biden for the second debate in a row

Our lives are at risk.
Two of the protestors were wearing t-shirts with “Defend DACA, Abolish Ice, Citizenship for All” across the chest, and were escorted from the room at Texas Southern University. At the last debate in July, protestors interrupted Cory Booker, demanding that New York City officials “Fire Pantaleo,” referring to the police officer who killed Eric Garner in 2014. Later in that debate, protestors from Movimiento Cosecha, a group calling for the end to all deportations, interrupted Joe Biden as he delivered remarks on the migrant crisis.
