The American Democracy Minute Radio Report & Podcast for Nov. 28, 2024
Brian is taking off a couple of days, but for Thanksgiving Day, is repeating a report on the increasing voter suppression of Native Americans. Rank and file voters of all parties find this appalling, but few know that their party perpetrates such suppression tactics to protect political power.
Voter Suppression of Native Americans is on the Rise. Three Pieces of Pending Legislation Could Stop It.
