How these September 11th babies, now voting age, see America

Some 13,000 babies were born in the United States on September 11th, 2001. Today, they turn 19, and this fall, they will be able to vote in a presidential election. Garrett Graff is the author of an oral history of 9/11 and recently interviewed several of these young Americans for a Politico magazine piece. He joins Amna Nawaz to discuss the lives of voters born on one of America’s darkest days.
