Making Election Day a federal holiday in the United States could increase voter turnout by providing citizens with more time to vote without work conflicts. In the 2020 election, 13.1% of registered voters who didn’t vote cited being too busy or having scheduling conflicts as the reason. Additionally, such a holiday would celebrate democracy, turning voting into a nationwide event. This approach aligns with practices in other countries and has significant public support; a Pew Research Center survey found that nearly 80% of Democrats and nearly 70% of Republicans favor making Election Day a federal holiday.
Many teenagers, like myself, are politically educated and want a say in who rules our country. If the voting age is lowered, it means that younger voices would be heard, it would promote more voting, and possibly encourage more teens to educate themselves politically to prepare. Sixteen year olds should be allowed to vote and stand for what they believe in.
I'm an A-List Preferred member who travels around forty weeks a year almost exclusively with SWA. If these corporate raiders are allowed to cut services and start nickel and diming us, I'll be forced to shop other airlines. I fly SWA because of their customer service, two free checked bags, and open seating.
Basically every *worst* change you could think of is what is being accomplished by Southwest now, and it's very saddening. The signature yellow bag snack mix snacks are no more, higher prices with long lay overs, lack of non-stops, getting rid of free bags, lay offs, and no more open seating. What exactly is the company accomplishing with this? Loosing many valuable customers and heart of decades of what makes Southwest special, stand out, and reason to choose.
Southwest… I’ve flown with you for decades. Recommended you to everybody. With these recent bag-checking changes, there is no way I’d ever fly with you again - way too close to being like Spirit. Add the seating changes, what even sets you apart from any other airline? Many of us chose you if not for the free seating, the free checked bags… I already know if I have to pay extra for these things, I’m choosing Delta over you in a heartbeat.
I firmly believe you were once THE best budget airline, and I will l miss the straightforward pricing. I can’t believe what’s happening to this company. It’s truly sad. Greed finally got a hold of you, and management has destroyed your legacy.
PLEASE reconsider these awful changes.
