white house, about an hour ago. they started at 10:00 a.m., made the walk all the way down here, in the shadow of the u.s. capital. they arrived about half an hour ago, they were screaming do your job, congress. that's what they have been talking about now. a group of speakers have come up and talked about the next steps in this movement. one of the big things we heard over and over again is that they don't want this movement to die down. they want to continue to grab the attention of lawmakers, and one of the things i found most interesting, i covered quite a few of these rallies since the parkland shooting, and there was a heavy emphasis today on voter registration. they asked the students to raise their hand, if they have registered to vote if they plan to register to vote by the time they turn 18, and then they specifically talked about going to the polls. these students want to make sure their message continues to be heard by the lawmakers, and that's one of the reasons that they're out here today. >> ryan, thank you so much. let's go from washington to new york now. jason carroll is following the proset of there in washington square park.
