Lower the voting age by 2 years to 16 so that teens can vote on their future

Teens have reached a level of political awareness where they can form educated opinions on the world they will grow up in and they deserve to have their voice heard by the government. The world they grow up in will affect them for their entire lives so they should have a say in how it is run.
