FAIRFAX, VA — Pop music star Miley Cyrus will knock on George Mason University students' doors Saturday in support of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.
"As an advocate for LGBTQ rights, gender equality and environmental issues, Cyrus will knock doors to speak to students about the high stakes in this election for millennial voters, laying out Clinton's vision for an America that is stronger together," according to a statement from the Clinton campaign.
