CLCV Member,  

I’ve had many conversations lately with friends about finding hope among
all the challenges we’re experiencing. It’s not easy in the midst of a
pandemic, with wildfires ravaging our state, a seat on the Supreme Court
at stake, and the most important election of our lifetime looming. 

Here’s what I say to my friends: I find hope in the courageous and
powerful leadership of young people at this moment - young people who are
changing the game and transforming what is possible. That’s what motivates
me right now - what inspires me. There’s a new, phenomenal generation of
young people working to take back our political system and our future.
It’s our job to put them in as many positions of power as possible.

[ [link removed] ]That’s why the California League of Conservation Voters is the lead
organization sponsoring Proposition 18, an initiative that would allow
voters who turn 18 by a November General Election to also vote in the
Primary Election that same year. 

This change will allow first-time voters to participate in the full
election cycle and build a lifelong habit of civic participation. Now,
more than ever, we need young voices to be heard. We need their leadership
on climate change solutions, gun control, student debt, and healthcare. We
need them taking back our political system and changing what is possible. 

CLCV Member, join our campaign to pass Proposition 18. Follow the
campaign on [ [link removed] ]Facebook, [ [link removed] ]Twitter, and [ [link removed] ]Instagram. Then spread the
word to your friends and followers by posting on social media about why
you’re supporting this important initiative (see our social media toolkit
[ [link removed] ]here).   

We’ve seen how fragile our democracy is in recent months with threats to
our voting rights across the country. With this initiative, we have an
opportunity to take action and make change that will have a lifelong
impact. If you care about our democracy, join us in supporting Proposition
18. 

In Solidarity,

Mary Creasman
Chief Executive Officer
California League of Conservation Voters

We believe that radical change is necessary and only by transforming our political system will we create the opportunity to take bold action on climate change. We elect and cultivate environmental champions, turn election victories into policy wins, hold our lawmakers accountable, and build political power for change. We inspire hope and action and fight for equity and justice for all Californians. We are in the business of changing what’s possible.
