Why Ted Olson Supports the DREAM Act and Gay Marriage

Ted Olson is the former U.S. Solicitor General who fought high-profile cases like Bush v. Gore, the Supreme Court case that determined the 2000 presidential outcome. Now Olson is fighting for America's DREAMers, the young DACA recipients impacted by the Trump administration's policy. He joins Walter Isaacson to explain why he supports this cause.
