How big an impact might Millennials have? Urban Institute estimates suggest that they will form between 15 and 18 million new households between 2010 and 2020 alone. These households aren’t just poised to be more numerous than any previous generation; they’re also the most diverse generation on record. Because of their diversity and the timing of their coming of age, Millennials may affect tomorrow’s cities as much as Baby Boomers have shaped today’s suburbia.

1 MILLION YOUNG AMERICANS TO BE DISENFRANCHISED

A new study indicates that over 1 million young Americans, most of whom are minorities, could be disenfranchised of their right to vote this fall thanks to the new Voter ID laws being passed in numerous states. If you think that’s OUTRAGEOUS, you’re right! We should be making voting easier - not more difficult!

Some states are eliminating early voting options, possibly to suppress the minority vote. What do you think?
