WASHINGTON — A pediatrician from South Carolina is forming a new political organization focused on children’s issues.
The group, called Their Future, Our Vote, will advocate for measures that address climate change, gun violence, childhood poverty and voting rights, among other issues. An affiliated political action committee, Their Future PAC, aims to raise between $5 million and $10 million to support candidates who back its agenda.
Dr. Annie Andrews, a Democrat who made an unsuccessful run for Congress last year, said she launched the effort because children are often ignored by policymakers.
