Sewell Encourages High School Seniors to Register to Vote | 2015-09-22 | 2015 | 2015-09 | Democrat | House | AL | Terri Sewell | S001185 | sewell.house.gov | legacy | Congresswoman Terri Sewell issued the following statement in recognition of National Voter Registration Day: Our votes are our voice, and every eligible voter should make his or her voice heard. Its important that we encourage and engage younger voters. Historically, young adults ages 18-24 are less likely to vote as compared to older adults. Voting is one of our most fundamental rights. We cannot take it for granted. National Voter Registration Day encourages high school seniors to register to vote, and to become active and engaged citizens within their communities. As a daughter of Selma, I cannot forget the sacrifices that were made by the brave men and women who laid their lives on the line so that all Americans can enjoy their Constitutionally-guaranteed right to vote. We must honor that legacy by voting in each and every election local, state, and federal. I am calling on our young people to register to vote. You are the future, and we need to hear your voices.
