HAPPENING NOW: Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley speaks on the House floor in support of the amendment to #HR1 to extend voting rights to 16 and 17 year olds.

16 & 17-year-olds in my district are working to support their families. Not for enrichment or to build a resume. They are working because they have no choice. They do so while attending school full-time & caring for loved ones. Their voices are needed at the ballot box.

"HI lawmakers introduced a bill to lower the voting age fr 18 to 16-years-old. The legislation - drafted w/ input of young people - was one of 20 bills introduced by members of HI's Keiki Caucus." Bradford Betz Fox News @16andVOTE Vote16HI foxnews.com/politics/hawai…

HCR63, a resolution to support lowering the voting age, got a hearing! Please submit testimony and let us know if you have any questions :)

We are sad to announce that HCR63 was deffered by JHA today despite 48 pages of written testimony and 6 virtual testifiers in full support of the resolution. We are facing an uphill battle, but won't give up working to expand voting rights to 16 and 17 year olds.
