#513: What It Means to Be American




Daily Signal News show

Summary: What does it mean to be American? That was the question over 6,000 students attempted to answer through a short film in the 2019 C-SPAN StudentCam Competition. The Daily Signal spoke with Eli Scott and Mason Daugherty, the grand-prize winners of the competition, to find out how they defined what it means to be American and what they learned as they spoke with political leaders and policy experts across the aisle. After listening to our interview, watch the full film: https://youtu.be/X5CHg6oRULE We also share a commentary on government spending from The Heritage Foundation’s budget expert, Romina Boccia. Plus, we read your letters to the editor and Virginia discusses a good news story about Save the Storks, an organization that is saving the lives of thousands of unborn babies.
