Again, not true, Congresswoman. #DC is (and has been) a Federal District with federal oversight. We would expect a member of congress to at least know how government/civics work.
I am preparing to defend in Congress @charlesallen bill to lower voting age in DC to 16, if passed by @councilofdc. DC, not Congress, decides who votes in DC. #HandsOffDC

Why not just lower it to 12? Actually, I would favor INCREASING the voting age to 21 except for members of the armed services. If one can't DRINK responsibly until age 21, why should we think they can VOTE responsibly?

Maybe they can get a free Tide pod after they vote... Kinda like how they can get free lollipops at the bank. Ugh! 16 year olds can barely operate a motor vehicle, but hey, let's get them in the voting booth!

So you think someone who - because of Democrats - won't have to get off mommy and daddy's health insurance for ten years should be voting? You are insane.
