Issue Position: Lowering the Voting Age

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2011

I want to empower our youth

The Washington Post - February 2, 2011:

I propose "a 28th amendment to lower the voting age."

Huffington Post - February 8, 2011:

"I feel that we should immediately begin discussion and planning to lower the legal voting age in the United States to either 16 or 17 years old."

"We should then encourage our schools and school districts to teach these young people about elections and the campaigns on the local, state and national level while they are happening."
