Gen Z Women and Gen Alpha Girls Speak Up About Voting and Issues That Matter Most for the 2024 Election in Advance of The Upcoming DebateBOSTON, June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In a powerful collaboration, Rebel Girls , the award-winning Generation Alpha empowerment brand, and Her Campus , the #1 media brand and community for college women and Gen Z, have partnered to amplify the voices of first-time and future women voters ahead of the 2024 election. Through a comprehensive survey, the organizations have gathered insights into the political views and priorities of young women, revealing their deep concerns and passions. In addition, they shared in their own words what they would say to the next President of the United States. The findings show a shared and urgent focus on gun violence, reflecting the staggering statistics that since the Columbine massacre in 1999, more than 400 school shootings have taken place, exposing over 370,000 students to gun violence.Additional highlights include a strong emphasis on voting, with a significant majority of both generations recognizing its importance. Impressively, 87% of Gen Z women plan to vote in the 2024 election, and 88% of Gen Alpha plan to vote when they become eligible.For Gen Z, gun violence ranks as the second highest priority (35%), behind reproductive rights (59%), while Gen Alpha places an even stronger emphasis on school safety (69%) and gun violence (38%) as their top issues in the upcoming election. These issues align with the realities these generations face from the rate of mass shootings in the United States to active shooter protocols at school creating a daily fear associated with actual and potential gun violence.In addition to the emphasis on gun violence and school safety, there were many through-lines between the two generations
