Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States extending the right to vote to citizens sixteen years of age or older.

House Joint Resolution 23 proposes an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would lower the legal voting age from 18 to 16. If ratified, this change would grant citizens aged 16 and 17 the right to participate in all federal, state, and local elections. The resolution aims to expand the electorate by allowing younger citizens to have a direct voice in the democratic process before they reach legal adulthood.
