"When you put it all together . . . these laws are a pretty express attack against student voters and youth voters as a whole,” said Scout McMahon, a 17-year-old high school senior and initiatives chair for @MTYouthAction

The incredible increase in civic engagement among young people in MT is no accident. @forward_montana @MontPIRG & @MTYouthAction are building a movement. Oblivious to these efforts-or worse, in response to them-the MT legislature passed a cocktail of voter suppression measures.

[Montana Youth Action @MTYouthAction]

We're suing the State of Montana for trying to take away young people's right to the ballot box.

Our Montana Constitution guarantees suffrage for every eligible voter. When laws attempt to abridge that basic right, we fight back.

@MTYouthAction's Scout McMahon:“[W]hen restrictions are placed on youth, the hurdles imposed make it incredibly difficult for us to make our voices heard. And when the voices of young people are stifled, our democracy fails to reflect the lived experiences of entire generations.”

[Upper Seven Law @UpperSevenLaw]

Last session, the state legislature passed a cocktail of laws burdening Montanans' right to vote. We're representing the three largest youth civic organizations @forward_montana @MTYouthAction @MontPIRG to challenge three of those laws. Read our complaint: https://t.co/juTVn8kBk7

Whether it be climate change or a global pandemic, student loans or racial justice, our generation faces many issues that are convincing young people to get off the sidelines and make their voices heard. What issues inspire you to get involved?

Montana's spike in COVID-19 cases is an increasing factor in the U.S. Senate race between Republican incumbent Steve Daines and his Democratic challenger, Gov. Steve Bullock. https://t.co/cl3ftzRRIL

Anyone else watch the #battleofthesteves? DYK that young Montanan voter turnout has the highest potential for influencing this race, more than any other demographic? Register to vote. #youngpeoplepower #gotv

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a fierce people’s advocate, a phenom on the bench, and a true American icon, leaves us with heavy hearts in the wake of her passing. Through her near-30-year SCOTUS career, she inspired millions, impacting the lives of millions more. Rest in power, #rbg
