\n Black Lives Matter and other protest groups marched outside the home of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in Kentucky early Friday.<\/p>\n

The GOP leader lives in Louisville, which has been rocked by racial discord particularly over the March 13 fatal shooting of black local EMT Breonna Taylor at the hands of three white cops during a botched home raid.<\/p>\n

\u201cBREONNA COULDN\u2019T SLEEP. NEITHER SHOULD MITCH,\u201d read one of the banners held by some of the roughly 30 protesters, who staged the hourlong march from 6 to 7 a.m., according to the Louisville Courier-Journal and News<\/a>week.<\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t clear whether McConnell or any of his family was home at the time.<\/p>\n

The group that organized the effort was the Sunrise Movement, which describes itself as \u201can army of young people to stop the climate crisis and create millions of good jobs in the process\u201d on its Facebook<\/a> page. The group was joined by local BLM organizers, Newsweek said.<\/p>\n

Marchers said they are supporting a potential Democratic challenger to McConnell, Charles Booker, who faces a primary election vote next week.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot only are we wide awake to the problems that we face, but we\u2019re also wide awake to the solutions that we need,\u201d protester Maxwell Farrar of the Sunrise Movement told the Courier-Journal.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not here to just complain on the Internet. We\u2019re here to get the solutions we need. We know, from the hood to the holler, Kentuckians know we need change right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, McConnell filed a resolution that called Taylor\u2019s death one of the \u201capp<\/a>arent instances of unjust police violence.\u201d<\/p>\n

Louisville\u2019s acting police chief issued a letter Friday saying he is firing one of the cops involved in her shooting amid increasing calls for swifter justice, including from Beyonce.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
