I love the idea of encouraging civic engagement. And there are probably things that can be done on a political level to make the playing field more even. We have the responsibility of making those things happen and supporting civil engagement via vacation policy is a good way to enable it.

It's just easy to forgot sometimes that many of us do come from a place of privilege so it's good to remind ourselves of it sometimes.

It's odd to me the government doesn't incentive participation in politics more and yet we have things like compulsory jury duty.
