Dem lawmaker introduces amendment to lower voting age to 16 in federal elections
By Justin Wise - 03/06/19 01:48 PM EST

Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) on Tuesday introduced an amendment to the House election reform bill that would lower the voting age from 18 to 16 in federal elections.

"I am honored & excited to be introducing my very 1st amendment on the House floor, an amendment to #HR1, the #ForthePeopleAct," Pressley, a first-term congresswoman who represents the 7th Congressional District in Massachusetts, said on Twitter. "My amendment will lower the voting age from 18 to 16, allowing our youth to have a seat at the table of democracy."

Pressley argued in a succession of tweets that citizens who are 16 and 17 make substantial contributions to America's "labor force and to their local economy through paying taxes."

While yes the immediate goal is to give Dems more duped and naive voters, the more sinister leftists have ulterior motves.

Notice how now teens get get abortions and 'change their gender' without parental consent, and now voting at 16.

And pretty soon they'll be able to give consent to dirty old pervs, who won't be sent to jail for it. Not to mention sharia marriages.

They social engineer the kids in Public (social engineering) schools.  They can't even wait for them to get out of high school now. 

No, just no.
