John,

Sister District and Vote Save America are back with part two of our four-part State Power Series! I hope you can join us virtually next Tuesday, August 30 as we explore how a critical SCOTUS case could give states control over elections — and their outcomes.

Here are the details:

The Insurrection will be Decentralized — Election Subversion: The Role of State Legislatures in the Fight for our Democracy
Moderated by: Sister District Co-Founder Gaby Goldstein & Crooked Media’s senior political director Shaniqua McClendon

Tuesday, August 30 | 5pm PT / 8pm ET

RSVP »

Featuring:

Brian Beutler, Crooked Media editor-in-chief and host of the podcast Positively Dreadful
Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta, Pennsylvania State Representative for the 181st Legislative District
Dahlia Lithwick, senior editor at Slate and host of the podcast Amicus

The January 6th hearings provided us with explosive evidence of how Trump and key officials in his administration attempted to strong-arm state legislators into putting up fake electors and changing election outcomes.

And in key states, Republicans are still building toward a future where they can engineer election outcomes by modifying the laws and rules governing election administration and limiting the ability of state courts to curb partisan redistricting and subversion.

On top of that, an arch-conservative Supreme Court appears likely to thwart a constitutional challenge to this state power grab through the Independent State Legislature Theory — taking up a case next term which would provide state legislatures with complete control over election administration.

It’s clear that we must pour resources and attention into state chambers because what we do now to build state power will determine the fate of our democracy.
