Vice President Kamala Harris revealed on Tuesday that the government could pay college students to register voters.
Harris said that students could receive the funds from the work-study federal program that pays a student’s wages while employed at a part-time job.

“As we know, this is important for a number of reasons. One, to engage our young leaders in this process and activate them in terms of their ability to strengthen our communities,” she added.
