Katy Faust spoke with Fox News Digital about her new book, 'Pro-Child Politics' and what voters can take from it heading into the November election.
A new book aims to persuade voters to see children's rights at the heart of every political and cultural issue facing America today. 'I think that we can disagree about a lot of different things when it comes to policing or education, or how we think about masculinity or femininity or the border. But I think all of us have this innate response of, ‘but leave the kids alone,’' Katy Faust told Fox News Digital.
Faust is a Seattle mom and author who founded the children's rights organization Them Before Us after seeing a need in the culture for advocacy that represented the rights and well-being of kids before adults. 'It really kind of started with gay marriage. Just seeing how the needs, the rights, the longings of children were completely tossed aside to push an adult-centric agenda, and that there was nobody speaking up on behalf of kids,' she said.
With the election about 70 days away, Faust hopes the book will empower voters to better evaluate which candidates and party's policies will actually protect the next generation. 'I hope to give them a very clear and easy to understand template through which they can evaluate anybody that wants their vote,' she continued.
