Politics is a mess. A couple of high school students from different ends of the political spectrum think they have an answer.
We talked to two high school students from different political parties about their new organization - and their PAC - that gets students involved in politics and promotes bipartisanship.
That and our other conversations are here:

No election worker, candidate, elected official, or advocate for democracy should ever be afraid of political retribution, arrest, or attack - and they certainly shouldn't be afraid of their own President.

Glad to see the ethics email fundraising as a campaign issue in the Democratic National Committee finance chair election (not an endorsement of @limtim.bsky.social, the Project doesn't endorse candidates, an endorsement of ethics being part of the campaign).
