Actress Jennifer Garner made a stop in Washington on Wednesday, appearing with Sen. Bob Casey, Sen. Barbara Mikulski and Save the Children’s Mark Shriver to advocate for early childhood education — the fourth such trip the she has made to the capital in two years.

“You guys look…young,” said Garner as she spoke in front of a bunch of bright-eyed interns, later adding that the reason the youngsters were “bright, successful, clean, pretty-looking people” was because of their early education opportunities.
