So this is my very first Democratic National Convention. And this November, I will be voting in my very first general election. And I am so excited to be able to say that my first vote for President will be for Hillary Clinton.

You see: I registered to vote at the DMV on the same day that I got my driver's license. And it took just a minute. But I knew that it gave me the power of a lifetime. The power to make my voice heard, and to shape the future of our country. I'm a Millennial: a member of– a member of the largest generation of Americans born since the baby boom. But what's wild is that nearly four out of five young people actually stayed home in the 2014 Congressional elections.

So just imagine– imagine what can happen if we all make our voices heard this November at the ballot box. We can elect in a President who will fight to give every American a chance to graduate from college debt-free. We can elect a President who will fight for equal pay for equal work.

My amazing mother became a single parent when I was just thirteen years old. And it wasn't easy. She had to balance a job and caring for her entire family. But imagine the difference equal pay can make for today's working mom's and their families.

Thank you.
