December 22, 2019 - PBS NewsHour Weekend full episode

Season 2019 Episode 390 | 26m 35s

President Trump on Saturday spoke to a group of young conservatives, calling them “fearless young leaders.” And while there are young people engaged and active in politics, a recent Harris poll commissioned by UNICEF USA of 8- to 17-year-olds found that only a third felt "included in the political process." Anucha Browne of UNICEF USA joins Yamiche Alcindor for more on the report.
