YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

If you thought the Supreme Court Roe v Wade ruling was about as scary as it gets, we've got some bad news for you. In Part 2 of our special miniseries, Breaking Down the Ballot, What A Day host Priyanka Aribindi walks us through the threat posed by Republican plans to get the Supreme Court to say that state legislatures have the power to pick the next president instead of...you.

By hearing from three candidates currently running for State Legislatures (Ricky Hurtado for North Carolina House District 63, Jessica Katzenmeyer for Wisconsin State Senate District 5, and Laura Terech for Arizona State House, Legislative District 4) we'll learn what electing Democrats to your state legislature can do to save democracy and a whole lot of other progressive values.

Special thanks to Lala Wu and @StatesWin for their help on this project.

Crooked believes that we need a better conversation about politics, culture, and the world around us—one that doesn’t just focus on what’s broken, but what we can do to fix it. At a time when it’s increasingly easy to feel cynical or hopeless, former Obama staffers Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor have created a place where people can have sane conversations that inform, entertain, and inspire action. In 2017 they started Crooked with Pod Save America—a no-bullshit conversation about politics. Since then, we continue to add shows, voices, and opportunities for activism, because it’s up to all of us to do our part to build a better world. That’s it. End of mission.
