Jane Fonda is urging disillusioned young voters in the U.S. to engage in the upcoming election, emphasizing the importance of their participation despite frustrations with the current administration. The acclaimed Hollywood actor and activist expressed her support for Kamala Harris's presidential campaign while highlighting critical issues such as the climate crisis and the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Fonda acknowledged the valid concerns many young people have regarding the Biden administration's policies on oil and gas drilling, as well as its handling of international conflicts. However, she cautioned against the temptation to abstain from voting or to support third-party candidates, which she believes could inadvertently pave the way for Donald Trump to regain the presidency. “I understand why young people are really angry and hurting,” Fonda stated. “But I urge you: do not sit this election out, no matter how frustrated you feel. Voting for a third party will only lead to a situation where your voice is silenced in the future of the United States. If you care about issues like Gaza, it’s crucial to vote in order to have a say in the matter. And once the election is over, be prepared to mobilize and advocate for change in the streets.” Fonda's message resonates with the urgency of the current political climate, as she calls on young voters to take action and make their voices heard.
