Make Election Day a Federal Holiday and Force States to Adopt It Through Funding

Make Election Day a Federal Holiday where people get paid holiday leave to go vote. This will help support voter participation and make sure working class citizens get the chance to actually vote. I’d also propose making a day in the spring a federal Election Day holiday as well so primaries across the country are held on the same day and people have the chance to vote in the primaries as well. I’d encourage states to hold their state and local elections on these days as well to increase efficiency in the election process.

Replace Juneteenth with an annual national voting day holiday!
