Your Voice Matters

Around the world, billions of people are excluded from full participation in the political, economic, and cultural systems that shape their lives. When so many lack access to and engagement with their government, policies fail to address their needs, favoring instead those who already have power and resources. This is a fundamental driver of inequality.

This situation is neither natural nor inevitable: Governments have the potential to remedy inequality or to reinforce it. And history makes clear that people—when they have the ability to organize, speak up, and engage—have the potential to hold their leaders and institutions accountable, pushing them to be responsive and fulfill their promise to serve the common good.

The voices of students and young people is one that often goes unheard, with only 46.1% of voters aged 18-29 turning out to vote in the 2016 election. Here at Fort Lewis College, we are working to change that and it starts with you. Whether you’re a first-time voter or an experienced constituent we want your voice to be heard. We’re here to help make voting as easy and convenient as possible for everyone- especially our busy Skyhawks.
