about the youth voice voter guide

This voter guide was created on the recommendations by Next Up Action Fund’s youth members, Board of Directors, and staff. Our committee makes its final decisions after diligent research, questionnaires, and identifying which candidates and ballot measures amplify young people’s priorities.
