6-8

6-8 The theme pledge theme for November is “Be Thankful.” What is the main holiday many people celebrate in November to remind us how important it is to be Thankful? In November we have Thanksgiving, Veteran’s Day; which is an important day for us to be thankful for all of the people who currently serve in the military or who have ever served in the military, and Election Day!

6-8 An interesting historical fact: In November of 1942, the minimum age someone could be drafted into the military was lowered from 21 to 18. But, it was not until a Supreme Court case in 1970 the age someone could vote was lowered from 21 to 18. So, there were almost 30 years that people ages 18 to 20 years old were asked to fight for the country, but could not vote in the elections. Please take a minute to read part of some testimony Ted Kennedy gave to Congress about this topic in Then, we will discuss it. Link to full testimony:

6-8 Vo’s Discussion Questions What is Kennedy’s opinion on this subject? Did he think the voting age should stay at 21 or be lowered to 18? Are there any facts that Kennedy offers to support his opinion? What are they? How else does Kennedy support his argument? What reasons does he give in this introduction for wanting to lower the voting age to 18? What is your opinion on this subject? Do you agree that the voting age should be 18? Can you think of any reasons it could be good for the voting age to be 21 instead? What is one law or piece of legislation for which you are thankful and why?
