Episode notes

I'm very pleasantly surprised. The president is the most progressive president we've had probably since FDR. Do I agree with him on everything? No. But he just took this executive action on gun violence, he signed until all the Safer Communities Act and it's going to save lives. And so every bit of legislation that we can get, we're going to take.

Five years after March for Our Lives, one of the historic protest’s organizers and his historic friend explain why it’s easy to forget how much progress has been made. Plus, Rep. Frost breaks some news about his first proper piece of legislation.

This episode was produced by Victoria Chamberlin and Siona Peterous, edited by Amina Al-Sadi, fact-checked by Laura Bullard, engineered by Paul Robert Mounsey, and hosted by Sean Rameswaram and Noel King.
