With our democracy under attack, please join us for the Sixth Annual State of Voting Rights program. Our esteemed panel addresses the impact of the “Big Lie” and election subversion in light of the January 6th insurrection and discusses the threats for the 2022 midterm and 2024 general elections. Additionally, we analyze the consequences of new state voting laws passed after the 2020 general election, and efforts in Congress to pass legislation blunting the impact of such laws.
