Description

Against the backdrop of a slew of new proposals that could restrict the right to vote, this week the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a big election law case out of Arizona. The case could determine the level of protection that voters have under the Voting Rights Act. 
Jessica talks through the case and what is at issue for voters across the country.
