Watch now   Marc Elias & I discuss the fate of the Voting Rights Act A recording of Joyce Vance's Substack Live Joyce Vance and Marc Elias Aug 5 If you missed our conversation this afternoon, you can watch the video now, and I hope you will. Marc Elias does an extraordinary job of advancing our understanding of the sad state of voting rights in our country during the 60th anniversary week for the Voting Rights Act. It’s not all doom and gloom, though, and Marc finds some room for cautious optimism. I’m grateful to Marc for spending time with us today and for making such a significant contribution to this great study of civics we are all a part of now. Arm yourself with the best information you can about how our democracy is supposed to work and share it with others. We’re in this together, Joyce A guest post by Marc Elias Founder democracydocket.com. Chair of Elias Law Group. My dog's name is Bode.
