And activist David Hogg and campaign manger Kevin Lata want Gen Z to channel that energy toward running for office. The two cofounded Leaders We Deserve, a PAC dedicated to electing young progressives to Congress and state legislatures at a time when a political career has never seemed more demoralizing—or dangerous.
