Petition Action

Raise the legal age for drinking to 21

Additional Information

The drinking age should be raised to 21 in an effort to reduce alcohol related crime and improve the health of younger people. At 18 a lot of younger people are not mature enough to handle the effects of alcohol so raising the age at which alcohol can be purchased may help with some of society’s problems.
