Candidate Talk: Andrew Yang

It feels like every day someone new announces they are running for President. But Andrew Yang, the founder of the fellowship program for recent college graduates Venture for America, was one of the first to declare. If elected, he says he would implement a universal basic income, meaning that every American citizen over 18 years of age would get $1,000 a month. Amy Walter talks to him about how that would actually work, and how he would pay for it.
