This is an important matter to students to keep their phones in school. What if someone bad enters the school and your child is without their phone? You'll never see that last "I love you" message.
I do a lot of sports at school and living in Nebraska we have the most wackiest weather. If there is another big tornado at school and my parents can't communicate with me, that would cause them to be stressed. What if I never come home, my parents wouldn't know how much I loved them because it was too late since I didn't have my phone. This is why I care. Thank you
Phones can be a problem in school, no doubt, but often times it is ignored just how important they can be for the safety of students. As Samuel stated, it is important to be able to contact our families. Especially since the world can be a dangerous place. The bill which the Senate is attempting to pass states that phones will not be permitted on school grounds. Phones, however, are our only form of contact with the outside world, such as our parents, and emergency services. While I do agree that sometimes they may be used at inappropriate times, if the schools in Nebraska simply enforce not using our phones during class, this bill would not have to be passed. I care because I worry about not only my safety as a person, but for the safety of my peers, the future generation, and my future children. Must we suppress the only form of communication that children can have with help while they are at school? As Samuel mentioned, there was a tornado in Nebraska last spring. I was able to go home because I could contact my father. Had I not had a phone on hand, I would have been stuck at school for a much longer time. If I were not allowed to possess a phone at school, I'd not only not be able to contact a parent or guardian, but I'd not be able to be tracked by my parents if I were ever taken while on my way home. This bill, if passed, could put students in potential danger. If you've read through this comment, and signed, I thank you personally. Have a wonderful day, or night.
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.
