John, young people care deeply – about their communities, about their education, about their future, and about the world.
Let’s give them the power to make a difference through their vote. Join Common Cause for an exclusive webinar this upcoming Wednesday, where we'll explore our efforts to lower the voting age and include 16 and 17-year-olds in our democracy.
RSVP now to reserve your spot in our Empowering Tomorrow: Lowering the Voting Age to 16 Webinar this Wednesday, April 24, at 8pm EDT >>
In today's complex world, where global challenges knock on the doors of our leaders, it's imperative to ensure that the voices of those most impacted are heard.
16 and 17-year-olds, while unable to vote, bear the consequences of political decisions on issues ranging from climate change to education policy. They are active members of society, contributing through employment, taxation, and civic engagement, yet they lack the fundamental right to vote.
In this webinar, we'll explore the compelling arguments for lowering the voting age. From increasing political representation for young people to empowering them to hold elected officials accountable, we'll examine how extending the franchise can strengthen our democracy.
Don't miss this opportunity to be part of the conversation on creating a more inclusive and equitable electoral system for all. Register now and help shape the future of our democracy!
John, I hope to see you there!
