Melania Trump lobbies for foster care

The First Lady is pushing for permanent legislation to secure educational opportunities and housing grants for foster youth.

She was joined by members of the House Ways and Means Committee and individuals who have lived through the system.

This advocacy marks her first major public appearance since recent headlines regarding the Jeffrey Epstein case.

Trump's 'Fostering the Future' initiative aims to close the achievement gap for some of the nation's most vulnerable children.
