This clip is from the Dec. 28, 2022 broadcast.

Buffalo, New York, experiences a Katrina moment after this weekend's historic blizzard. The death toll has climbed to at least 32 as people froze to death in their homes and cars, with nationwide fatalities surpassing 60 people. State and military police have been deployed to Buffalo to enforce the city's ongoing driving ban as road conditions remain treacherous after a 51.5-inch snowfall. India Walton, former Buffalo mayoral candidate and longtime community activist, joins "Democracy Now!" as well as Cariol Horne, a community organizer and racial justice advocate who was arrested by Buffalo police during the storm, to discuss the nation's latest climate emergency and the city government's role in the tragedy.
