Maybe America needs a mom to call a big time-out
from Lost in the Middle: America's Political Orphans · host Scott Klug
Meet Tami, a Utah special-ed teacher, Mormon Tabernacle singer and mom of five who launched a civility index web site to grade America’s politicians. And then had to take it down because of comments we will say weren’t remotely civil. She’s not the first. A decade ago, a Georgia evangelical Republican and Jersey Jewish Democratic attack dog didn’t have any luck with a civility pledge either. And we will introduce you to a brave Member of the British Parliament who won the UK’s first national civility award. See more information relating to the episode in the Reading Room.
