Allow voluntary voting for 16 and 17-year-olds
The Issue
Voluntary voting for 16 and 17-year-olds should be allowed within Australia to let the 500,000 soon-to-be young adults have their say on their future. Further climate change and other problems will not be affecting 30-40 year-olds as crucially as our current youth, therefore shouldn't they be allowed to decide upon what happens to their future? By signing this petition, you support a change in our voting system to allow this youth to have an impact on Australia's future
