Why State Legislatures are Key for Election Certification and Democracy with Daniel Squadron

About this episode

While Congress makes laws for the whole country, the reality is that people’s everyday lives are more affected by their state legislature. So why don’t we pay more attention to state legislative races? Especially when extremist candidates are winning seats? Daniel Squadron of The States Project joins to discuss the power of state legislatures, why everyone should pay attention to these down-ballot races this fall and how to get involved.
