The moment we've all been waiting for is now here: whether voting at 16 makes it onto the ballot in @LACity this November could depend on your help this next week. Let's empower a new generation of voters in L.A.! #16ToVote #Vote16

Nice. Now can we also do lowering the voting age to 16 along with 5 or 6 dozen other common-sense charter reforms for @LACity too so that voters can improve Los Angeles even more for all Angelenos this November? #16ToVote #VoteAt16

A message from TakingITGlobal's Executive Director, Jennifer Corriero:

"TakingITGlobal has supported Vote16 since it first emerged as a concept in 2009. And the reason is simple: expanding voting rights strengthens an inclusive democracy.

Expanding voting rights to include 16 and 17 year old citizens isn't about partisanship. It’s about participation within an inclusive democracy. It’s about recognizing that young people are already engaged in their communities, already affected by policies, and already capable of forming informed opinions. Giving citizens the right to vote starting at the age of 16 will bring them into the democratic process at an earlier stage in life, supporting the likelihood of lifelong civic participation.

We encourage you to check it out the resources at https://t.co/qNulnd9b3X to learn more about Bill S-222, and most importantly, share your voice with Senators to help this move forward in our lifetime!"

Lowering the voting age to 16 for local elections? It’s more likely than you think…

Our video of what turned out to be the final meeting of the LA Charter Reform Commission is now up: https://t.co/tiNBvqC8VZ

"As the upper chamber debates the Vote 16 Act, the second reading vote will reveal whether this momentum is strong enough to secure Parliament’s first dedicated, exclusive study of youth enfranchisement."

Jayden Paquet-Noiseux défend Vote16 dans Sur le Vif:

« À 16 ans, un, t’es encore chez toi, t’es pas encore parti pour l’université, t’es chez tes parents, t’es à ton école. Tu participes à la ville commune à 16 ans. » #vote16 #vote16canada

I just wanted to personally thank Commissioner @cfuentesrun for the effort to introduce a motion to clarify the Charter Language at yesterday's Charter Reform Commission. Although it didn't pass, we still want to pass on our gratitude for the motion to empower young Angelenos.

Los Angeles could be the next largest city to lower the voting age. But Culver City isn't that far behind. Find out more below! #16ToVote #VoteAt16
