YouTube Description
as posted by the channelEntrepreneur Andrew Yang said the U.S. needs to “make it a federal priority and not a local one” to help integrate young people with special needs into the workforce and community. “We have to stop confusing economic value and human value,” he said. “We have to be able to say to our kids [with special needs] that ‘You have intrinsic value because you’re an American and you’re a human being.’” Yang is one of the seven Democrats vying for their party's 2020 presidential nomination who met on the stage for the sixth Democratic debate on Dec. 19, hosted by the PBS NewsHour and POLITICO.
