If 16- and 17-Year-Olds Should Be Allowed to Vote, Then They Shouldn't Be Minors Under Immigration Law, Right?
By Dan Cadman on March 18, 2019
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has been quoted by the media as endorsing the idea of granting 16-year-old U.S. citizens the right to vote in federal elections. It got me to thinking ...
Dear Madam Speaker,
I understand that you and a goodly number of other party members have argued that citizens as young as 16 should be enfranchised.
The question, of course, is one of maturity, which is a matter of no small significance where the governance of our nation is concerned. That you and other Democrats have come to believe that 16- and 17-years-olds are possessed of adequate maturity and reasoning sound enough to merit the right to vote is an interesting point of view.
