This week, we’re all sitting at the kids’ table. Kids are paying attention to politics, and we owe it to them, to answer their questions, honestly, plainly. Our latest episode features 13-year-old Margo asking Jaime about the issues impacting her community and future.

Young people may not know every political acronym or procedural rule, but they know when something doesn’t make sense. Welcome to the Kids Table. Our thirteen-year-old special guest host Margo gives out the first ever Sit Your Butt Down Award.

On this special “At the Kids’ Table” episode, we flip the script and hand the mic to teen host Margo, and answer questions about the government shutdown and how it hurts families who rely on health care and SNAP. Together we dig into what leaders owe the people they serve and what makes a good president—all through the honest, unfiltered lens of a young voter in the making. Margo has no trouble reminding us that kids are paying attention and deserve real answers from grown-ups, not spin.
