Episode 6: The Supreme Court vs Voting Rights

<p>The U.S. Supreme Court dealt a major blow to voting rights in its recent 6-3 decision in <em>Brnovich v. DNC.</em> The Court's conservative majority upheld two Arizona voter suppression laws and gutted a key provision of the Voting Rights Act. Join Lindsay Langholz and Kat Calvin for a discussion about the impact of this decision and the Court's previous decision in <em>Shelby County v. Holder</em>. They discuss where the fight to protect voting rights goes from here and what listeners can do in their local communities.</p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">-----------------</span></p> <p><strong>Join the Progressive Legal Movement Today:</strong> <a href="https://www.acslaw.org/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">ACSLaw.org</a></p> <p><strong>Today's</strong> <strong>Host:</strong> <a href= "https://www.acslaw.org/person/lindsay-langholz/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lindsay Langholz</a>, ACS Director of Policy and Program</p> <p><strong>Today's Guest:</strong> <a href= "https://www.katcalvin.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kat Calvin</a> of <a href="https://www.spreadthevote.org/" target= "_blank" rel="noopener">Spread the Vote</a></p> <p><strong>Link:</strong> <a href= "https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/20pdf/19-1257_g204.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Supreme Court's decision in <em>Brnovich v.
