Written By Laura W. Brill

Read Director Laura W. Brill’s response to the New York Daily News’s March 3, 2020 op-ed “A Wish for Super Tuesday” regarding youth voter registration and turnout.

Brill writes, “When students help each other register to vote, they energize other students more easily than educators or parents, develop leadership skills, appreciate their own capacity for action, and use their own voices. . . .  If we care about democracy and making sure that the next generation does as well, we should be investing in the infrastructure to support their efforts to participate now.”
