Texas stands at a crossroads. As we approach the 2024 elections, our young voters - a force poised to represent nearly half of the voting-age populace (46% of the voting-eligible population next year will be either Gen Z or Millennials) - are unmistakably disillusioned.

Your comments are on point and activating the younger demographic a worthy goal. How do we make it happen? There seems to be so much ignorance about our system of government, I think we have to do better educating our students about their responsibilities in a democracy.
