Last week Republicans on Wisconsin’s Supreme Court forced Wisconsinites to vote in person during a public health crisis when they themselves enjoyed the safety of casting their ballots absentee. Milwaukee consolidated its 180 polling places down to five, forcing voters to line up for hours in masks and makeshift personal protective equipment (PPE). Is this what protecting the vote looks like?
In a new video by Brave New Films, Academy Award winner Sally Field recites U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s damning dissent, which makes the case clear that voters would be disenfranchised “through no fault of their own.”
