The USC Dornsife Center for the Political Future (CPF) presents Quick Takes: Q&A with Barbara Boxer, Fall 2020 Fellow and former U.S. Senator (D-CA). In an informal conversation with the Center, Sen. Boxer shared her political journey, from protesting the Vietnam War to working across the aisle to get things done while serving as a Senator. Sen. Boxer said this about why it's important to always vote, "If we're going to have a democracy, everyone has to participate. We have a representative democracy. We don't have a democracy where we vote on every issue. We vote for the person, and trust them to vote on the issue, and then we have to stay on top of what they do. But, if we don't vote, we're powerless, and that's the truth."

Barbara Boxer is a former U.S. Senator, Congresswoman, and County Supervisor who served the state of California for decades in Congress.
