Young Americans are more concerned about job opportunities than with lower student loan interest rates or staying on their parents’ health insurance longer, and most of them plan to vote.
Generation Opportunity, a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that focuses on mobilizing the young on economic issues, polled more than 1,000 people ages 18 to 29 this summer and released the results this month. The numbers show that only 38% of Generation Y believes that today’s political leaders reflect the interests of young Americans.
