In today's system as more people are incarcerated because of their nonviolent offenses, whether it's either drug crimes from African Americans, performing safe abortions from doctors and women, or even innocent victims that didn't really commit a crime, it throws me off the wall that they lost their right to vote to help America move forward for further generations to come. I believe that all prisoners, and yes, even those who have committed violent offenses, should have the right to vote because they are citizens just like we are and they deserve the right to vote no matter what. Voting affects all of our lives, and if turnout is low, especially in further elections, then the few percent of people have control over our government to where they only represent them over their own issues and nobody else over others such as raising the minimum wage, making housing become affordable, letting healthcare to be free and easily accessible for everyone without the need for insurance, lowering prescription drug prices, decriminalizing and legalizing marijuana or safe and legal abortions, and offering tuition-free colleges and getting graduates out of student loan debt. This is why voting matters because of our sake for democracy for not only our lives but for future generations of our children and grandchildren, and this is why everybody including prisoners should have the right to vote.
