Reclaim Idaho Volunteer Coordinator Sam Sandmire talks to a potential petition signer in Wallace, Idaho.

Reclaim Idaho has just over a month to collect enough signatures to get their "Quality Education Act" initiative on the ballot. Their goal is to pass the initiative which would raise taxes for some tax brackets and invest that money into the state's K-12 education system. Luke Mayville, co-founder of Reclaim Idaho and Sam Sandmire, the volunteer organizer for the group, join Gemma to talk more about their efforts.
