10 Reasons to Vote

1. If you don’t vote, a Republican run senate is in our future and issues on climate change will continue to be ignored.

2. Voting is your opportunity to make your voice heard on matters that are important to you.

3. There is power in numbers. If you don’t vote for what you believe in, someone else will.

4. If you want a say in who leads our communities, states, country and more then you need to vote for representatives that have your best interests in mind.

5. Between 2011-14, 205 laws were passed restricting access to abortion and birth control (source). Your vote helps women make their own decisions about their bodies.

6. Because women still earn $.78 for every dollar men earn. (source)

7. I don’t want to see another headline about a school shooting. We should enforce stricter gun laws.

8. Marriage Equality. Love is love and everyone has a right to marry whom they choose.

9. Because everyone has a right to affordable healthcare and voting can make that happen.

10. Voting is a right and a privilege not everyone has.
