I think it's a great idea, perhaps it could be on a volunteer basis, while still being incentivized ? The no serve no vote idea is also a viable one. We have to get the younger generations to want more ownership in our great country vs disenchantment.... think we need to adapt tactics as they do in the SCHOOLS or at least make sure they are exposed to all that is great about our country. This is still the country that people from all over the world run to when they want to escape their own country. There is a reason for that. Let's make sure the younger understand that and what those reasons are. the rest of the world runs to we they want to escape their own country. There is a reason for that. Let's make sure the younger understand that and what those reasons are.
The programs already exist - and time in the PeaceCorps or in AmeriCorps count toward the 10 year government service requirement of the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. Maybe the programs and the reward need tweaking and some marketing, but they are there.
Disagree with those in this thread arguing for this as a requirement for voting. Some young people would not be able to do this for any number of reasons - illness, need to care for a family member (child, sibling, parent, etc.) If you’re a legal citizen over 18, the right to vote should be unencumbered.

Need to make it mandatory if there is any money left in the budget.
