LOS ANGELES — Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio- Cortez are set to speak in downtown Los Angeles Saturday as part of what Sanders calls his effort "to have real discussions across America on how we move forward to take on the oligarchs and corporate interests who have so much power and influence in this country."

At previous stops of what Sanders has dubbed as the "Fighting Oligarchy: Where We Go From Here" tour, Sanders, I-Vermont, and Ocasio-Cortez, D-New York, railed against the Trump administration, income inequality and tech billionaire Elon Musk, a top advisor to President Donald Trump and de facto head of the Department of Government Efficiency.

Singer-songwriters Joan Baez, Neil Young and Maggie Rogers are set to perform during the event at Gloria Molina Grand Park. Doors were scheduled to open at 9 a.m. The musical performances and speeches are set to start at 9:30 a.m., with Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez set to speak after 1 p.m.

Bags, signs and firearms are prohibited.

Organizers are encouraging attendees to take public transit, ride share or car pool. Food will be available for purchase from food trucks inside the event.
