NextGen PAC endorses progressive measures on abortion access and opposing anti-democracy reforms in Arizona and Nevada.
Washington, D.C. – Today, NextGen PAC announced its endorsements for two key ballot initiatives for the 2024 general election. These initiatives, spanning multiple states, align with NextGen PAC’s mission to advance progressive values and empower young voters to shape their futures.
Arizona
NextGen PAC opposes a constitutional amendment that would impose stricter signature requirements for qualifying state statute initiatives and constitutional amendments. This measure is seen as an attempt to undermine the democratic process and will be actively opposed by NextGen PAC.
Nevada
NextGen PAC endorses the Nevadans for Reproductive Freedom initiative, which seeks to amend the state constitution to protect the right to abortion before fetal viability. This measure has successfully navigated legal challenges and will be supported by NextGen PAC in the 2024 election.
“NextGen PAC is proud to endorse these progressive ballot initiatives that reflect the values and priorities of young voters across the country,” said NextGen PAC President Cristina Tzintzún Ramirez. “From protecting reproductive rights to opposing anti-democracy reforms, these measures represent a critical step towards building a more just and equitable future.”
In 2020, NextGen helped mobilize 1 in every 9 young voters who cast a ballot, leading to the largest youth voter turnout in history. Leading up to 2024, NextGen PAC is focused on empowering young voters to fight for a better future, this includes endorsing progressive candidates and ballot measures, among other activities.
