BOSTON -- Over 100 people are sleeping outside the State House tonight.
Community members, college students and clergy members from across the Bay State set up tents and sleeping bags on the Boston Common at the foot of the State House.
They're taking part in the “Leadership Campaign” and demonstrating against sleeping in homes and dorms that are powered by dirty electricity.
They want Governor Deval Patrick to introduce a bill that will re-power the Commonwealth with clean electricity by the year 2020.
