Socioeconomic status impacts political engagement by influencing individuals' resources, access to information, and perceived efficacy in the political process. Those in higher socioeconomic brackets often have more opportunities to participate in political activities, such as campaign financing and networking, thus shaping policy discussions. In contrast, individuals from lower socioeconomic backgrounds may encounter obstacles, including limited time and financial resources, reducing their engagement levels. This disparity can lead to unequal representation in political decision-making, as marginalized voices struggle for recognition. Policies aimed at enhancing civic education and access to resources can help bridge this gap and promote equitable political participation.
