NOTES

Raised by a single Hispanic/Native American mother on the Upper East Side in New York City, Jett was diagnosed with "moderate to severe autism" at the age of two and was completely non-verbal, until the age of four. After numerous early-intervention programs and holistic treatments, Jett shocked the medical community with his recovery and formally lost his Autism diagnosis by the age of six. Jett's unique interest in politics began at the age of nine, blossoming with the 2016 presidential election. At the age of 14, he founded the political news website The Gen Z Post and became one of the U.S. Press Association's youngest members in history. His first book, THROUGH THE EYES OF A YOUNG AMERICAN, is a powerful commentary on today's political landscape, and offers ways to resolve our nation's biggest challenges with health care, taxation, social security, trade, tariffs, protectionism, automation, climate change, education, debt forgiveness, wealth inequality, labor, welfare, wages, military spending, border security, universal basic income, capitalism, entrepreneurship, abortion, gun violence, child sex trafficking, racism, and the COVID-19 Coronavirus pandemic
