In the midst of the Climate Crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic has emerged to present a fundamental threat to our democracy and our voting rights. The pandemic also presents a unique opportunity to recreate our democracy into a more inclusive and representative form of government.   In this episode we talk with Mike Young, Political and Organizing Director for the California League of Conservation Voters, about some key democracy reform initiatives -- such as expanding voting rights to parolees and lowering the voting age to 17.     To learn more about the California League of Conservation Voters and the work they do visit www.ecovote.org.    If you want to do deep dive into the topic of democracy reform, check out the Scholar Strategy Network podcast "Realizing Democracy" https://scholars.org/podcast/realizing-democracy
