Last week, Democrats across the country ran on alleviating the issue of affordability. 

Those people spreading the message were often young, 30-somethings. That was true in New York City, where Zohran Mamdani became mayor-elect. And it was true in Detroit, where Mary Sheffield won as well. The voters who brought those people to victory — particularly in the New York mayoral race and the Virginia governor’s race — were young voters.

Amanda Litman is the co-founder and president of Run For Something. She joined Robyn Vincent to discuss why tackling affordability has become a rallying cry for liberal politicians across the country.
