A group of Occupy Wall Street protesters start their march to Washington DC in NY to call to attention the deadline for a congressional committee to decide whether to keep President Barack Obama's extension of tax cuts. 9th November 2011

About two dozen Occupy Wall Street protesters started a two-week walk from New York to Washington on Wednesday. They plan to walk 20 miles per day through Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland and either camp out or find hosts to put them up. Their goal is to arrive in Washington by Nov. 23 and call attention to the deadline for a congressional committee to decide whether to keep President Barack Obama's extension of tax cuts under President George W. Bush. Protesters say the cuts benefit only rich Americans.
