Democrats Must Deliver—Or Risk Losing Young Voters for Good:

“Less than two weeks after electing new leadership, all eyes are on Democrats as they forge a strategy to win back the voters they once reliably counted on. The stakes couldn’t be higher as Trump and his allies gut civil rights, attack democracy, and hand more power to corporations—all while young voters, historically a key voting bloc for Democrats, are questioning whether the party is still fighting for them.

At the recent DNC winter meeting, young voters and Future Coalition sent a clear message: we are the future of the party but too often an afterthought. Young people are expected to turn out, yet our priorities are repeatedly delayed. With new leadership—including Chair Ken Martin and Vice Chairs Malcolm Kenyatta, David Hogg, and Artie Blanco—Democrats have a chance to show they understand what’s at stake.

For too long, Democrats have been defined by what they oppose rather than what they deliver. Meanwhile, Trump and his allies are ending historic investments in clean energy, gutting labor protections, and making life harder for young people. If Democrats want to win back trust, they need to stop talking about ‘what’s possible’ and start fighting for what’s necessary: affordable housing, student debt relief, higher wages, and reining in corporate overreach.”
