Second hour: Exploring proposals for how to lift children out of poverty
We welcome Dr. Jill Stein, the Green Party candidate for U.S. President in 2012 and 2016, and now the likely candidate in 2024. Stein has argued that there is no effective difference between Republicans and Democrats, and that voters should have more and better options. She's in Rochester on Friday and joins us to discuss her candidacy. In studio:
