Let the American people VOTE on the legal drinking age!

Created by D.Z. on January 19, 2013

President Obama:

Many young voters have supported you in the past elections. Show your solidarity with these young voters and allow them to vote and shape the future social issues of this country.

Please urge Congress to repeal the National Minimum Drinking Age Act and allow the American people to choose their own drinking age.

The National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 raised the drinking age to 21. States were manipulated into enacting this law or else risk a 10% reduction of Federal highway funds.

Let the American people, not Congress, decide this social issue. Education and families, not unenforceable laws, can raise America's youth in a responsible environment.
