The mission of OUR TIME is to combine the voting and purchasing power of young Americans so that politicians and businesses represent our needs better.  Currently, they are not doing a good job. At least 1 in 6 of us is unemployed, almost 1 in 3 of us lack insurance, and those of us lucky enough to attend college on average owe more than $24,000 in student loan debt. This has got to stop, and here is what we are doing about it:

• We’re translating a cliff notes version of one major news article for you each day. This way you can be informed, because we get that politics is currently a foreign language and we’re tired of it too.
• We’re conducting a weekly poll on key issues and publishing the results in mainstream media to highlight what our generation thinks.
• We’re creating videos with celebrities and popular brands to register you to vote.
• We’re saving you money and supporting young businesses through our marketplace, Buy Young
