Host Reed Galen is joined by Mary-Pat Hector, the CEO of RISE, an organization that builds student-led advocacy campaigns, promotes increased access to higher education…and strengthens students’ political power through youth voter mobilization. They discuss why Gen Z voters are so unique, why they’re so crucial to defend our democracy in 2024, and why the most effective voter engagement happens on-the-ground and year-round.
