Students
Ask: What's Your Plan?
Something big is happening in our democracy - young people are
voting. For the past three elections, we’ve turned out in big numbers.
The
evidence also shows that when politicians talk to young people, we will
vote even more.
Young people are going to vote in 2008 and will vote even more if the Presidential candidates target young people. Not just with big smiles and empty rhetoric, but with substance, engaging us in conversations about the issues we care about. Issues like global warming, college affordability, health care, and financial security.
These are critical issues, and we’re the generation
who will be most affected by them. So we’re not waiting for the
candidates to come to us - we’re going directly to them and asking one
simple question: “What’s Your Plan?” on global warming. On college affordability. On affordable health care. And on financial security.
