2. BRING David Hogg into discussion and LISTEN to him. He is right we can't win without young voters.

David Hogg, a survivor of the Parkland school shooting turned gun safety and youth leadership advocate, has launched a bid for one of the Democratic National Committee’s vice-chair positions, arguing the party needs to move in a bolder and more anti-establishment direction as it braces for Donald Trump’s return to the White House.

Hogg announced on Monday that he would seek one of the party’s top leadership posts due, in part, to his frustration with a lack of accountability among prominent Democrats following Kamala Harris’s loss in November’s presidential race. “I’m trying to take that accountability myself and realize it does not make us weaker as a party [or] as a person,” Hogg told the Guardian before his announcement. “It’s an essential part of leadership, just talking about what we could have done differently, so we can build a better future, so that something like this never happens again.”
