John,
In today's complex world, where global challenges knock on the doors of our leaders, it's crucial to ensure that the voices of those most impacted are heard.
Young people are deeply invested – in their communities, their education, their future, and the world at large. It's time to empower them to affect change through their vote.
RSVP now and join us in writing letters to encourage lowering the voting age to 16 on Tuesday, April 30th, at 8pm EDT >>
16 and 17-year-olds, despite being unable to vote, bear the consequences of political decisions on issues ranging from climate change to education policy. They actively contribute to society through employment, taxation, and civic engagement, yet they lack the fundamental right to vote.
Join fellow Common Cause members to collaboratively write letters to your local newspaper(s), share your perspectives and stories, and demand expanded voting rights to ensure every voice counts in shaping our future.
John, I hope to see you there!
Ariel Singleton, National Campaigner
and the team at Common Cause
