Shifting Power by Turning State Legislatures Blue with Gaby Goldstein


Listen Later

Gaby Goldstein, cofounder of The Sister District Project, discusses the history of how Republicans gained majorities in state legislatures, and the ways in which they've used that power to shrink rights, including voting rights., and reproductive rights. She also provides some practical solutions for Democrats to begin to win over majorities in state legislatures, starting with Virginia: one of the few states in which Democrats hold a legislative trifecta.
