A group of U.S. House Democrats with ties to pro-transgender ideology, are trying again to lower the voting age to 16.

The effort is led by New York Congresswoman Grace Meng, who was among Democrats who voted against a proposal that would require schools to obtain parental consent before providing mental health services to students.
