Who Gets to Vote? A Discussion of Voting Rights Today

May 13, 2021 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

FREE

Dozens of new voting measures have been introduced this year in Arizona and across the country. Why do these voting bills matter? Do they protect or suppress the public’s access to vote in local and national elections? How exactly does the electoral process work, and what will it look like in the future? Join us for a comprehensive examination of voting rights and voting and election laws in the U.S. from the past to present day.
