Make Voting Day a National Holiday by Executive Order.

The Issue

America has the worst participation rate of all the democracies in the world. Not only that, for the first time in American history a political party is working hard to limit the right of people to go to the polls and vote. By making Voting Day a national holiday, all people will have more access to participate and cast their vote. It's only the right thing to do.
