Proposal to improve our process of voting and turnout

Reference no: EM133732922

Case: In our American Politics class, we have learned about various proposals for reforming government. There are many proposals, some big and some smaller, on how to deepen and strengthen our democracy. I want you to create a presentation - it can be a powerpoint, prezi, google slides, or any other medium that you prefer - to teach about a proposal to reform government. What do you think would most improve our democracy? Choose a proposal, explain what problem it is addressing, how it would help our system of government work better, and how you would work to enact this change. Develop a concrete plan of action for how you will get your proposal enacted. Here is just a short list of some of the many reform proposals that some people think will improve our system. You can choose one of these or you can choose something else. Please choose something you feel strongly about.
