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.
Ryan supported: Make Election Day a Federal Holiday in the U.S.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.
Lillis supported: Lower the National voting age to 16 in the United StatesI know he doesn't want this job. He doesn't want to run for the highest office in the world. And that's understandable. But he also knows that we are in the face of a dark, dark future. We the people need someone to stand up for us, because pit government is no longer for the people. Stewart understands what we are going through, he gets us. Is the point of governance not to understand the people? This is bigger than power, or politics. The next elections will decide the fate of our planet, our people, our country. Please Mr. Stewart, these politicians are tearing down the entire system and brigning us down with it. You are our only hope.
Ricardo supported: Petition to Urge Jon Stewart to Consider a 2028 Presidential RunI did a search because someone told me that Mr. Stewart was in the running for a New Hampshire senate seat. I found this petition instead. I agree. The United States is in desperate need of a strong leader that is for the people, not corporate interests. Our modern society exists on infrastructure created primarily in the 50s. The railway system has antiquated laws set by robber barons during the last guilded age. Progress is being hindered. Lives are at stake. Social reform is desperately needed. We need a leader that both understands our global position and the people that truly keep this country going. We need unity.
