“In California, youth offender parole hearings offer individuals convicted of crimes before their 26th birthday a meaningful opportunity for parole. This is a way for the Board of Parole Hearings to review the suitability of a prisoner for release based on their youth at the time of the offense.” The idiot democrat progressives want to reduce the voting age to sixteen instead of 26!
“Brain development is a continuous process that extends well beyond childhood, with significant changes occurring throughout adolescence and into the early twenties. While the brain’s major structures are in place at birth, critical areas like the prefrontal cortex, responsible for decision-making, planning, and impulse control, continue to mature into the early 20s.”
And that is all I’m going to say about that!
A reasonable compromise: Enlist in the military and get the right to vote!

The progressives want 16 year olds to be able to vote for the most powerful guy in the world!!!
