Atlanta DSA Condemns SB202: As Workers, We Must Organize Against Voter Suppression and More

The bill that Kemp signed into law, SB202, is indefensible; it restricts voting methods, adds complicated and inaccessible hoops, allows the state to intervene in county elections processes, and bans voters taking care of each other while waiting for hours in lines.
