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 StatesWe have lived in collierville for twenty-five years and raised our three children here. One of the reasons we settled here is because this is such a beautiful town with loads of charm. Another reason is that it is safe. Our children were able to safely walk to the town square on their own when they were in elementary school. They played on our front yard. They rode their bikes. If we were raising children here now, none of those things would be possible. Unfortunately the leadership of this town has allowed too many apartments to be built and too many commercial spaces to be built, while others sit empty. Traffic is ridiculous. Reckless drivers cruise up and down Peterson Lake, Powell, and White Roads at 40 and 50 miles an hour without consequence. Drivers do not stop at crosswalks. The last thing we need is more until we have the infrastructure to support it and enough police officers to strictly enforce traffic laws. We should retain the unique and welcoming qualities of Collierville and stop with the obsessive, out of control building. Please do not allow this gas station to come to fruition.
Jocelyn supported: Oppose New Convenience Store/Gas Station in Collierville, TNElon Musk could build these data centers anywhere, and he's choosing to build them in minority neighborhoods. Shelby County is already the Asthma Capital of the U.S., and these toxic pollutants from these turbines getting in our air and water will only make it worse. Please do your research, please share this petition. Please save Memphis.
