Lowering the voting age to16 and restoring voting rights for Oregonians in prison are just a couple getting-the-youth-vote-counted ideas that, Samantha Gladu, executive director of Next Up, proposes in our premiere episode of Voting Now: Turning Rights Into Reality. Next Up is a Portland non-profit that encourages leadership and amplifies the voices of diverse young people to help achieve a more just and equitable Oregon.
This episode is chockfull of concrete advice on everything from how Oregonians displaced by fire can vote, to ways people can make some real change that will affect them now by voting down line in the upcoming city and county elections.
"Voting Now: Turning Rights Into Reality" is a new podcast series from Oregon lawyers and legal professionals who believe change can and will happen by igniting action through solid information. They’ll host nationally renowned activists, policy makers, historians, and scholars to discuss the hidden history of suffrage, the systemic inequities in voting, and the movements that are asking for your participation to help our communities, state and country live up to democratic ideals. They’ll explore who’s still getting left out and how to work toward equal representation. With three weeks to our election, the time to act on voter suppression and take down barriers to exercise democracy is now
