Not Biological Quirk. Lawmakers Lower Age of Majority
Millions of US youths move toward adulthood as lawmakers lower the age of majority from 21 to 18. About 11 million 18 to 20-year-olds exist, with eight states granting full rights or partial rights to 18-year-olds. Drinking privileges vary, with only a few states allowing liquor purchases at 18. Debate centers on education, public safety, and consequences for politics and economy.
