Native America Calling: New threats to voting rights
Wednesday, June 2, 2021
The state of Montana eliminated same day registration and put limits on ballot collection.
The Native American Rights Fund is among those fighting the law, saying it puts barriers up for Native voters who often live in rural areas. It’s part of a renewed trend to restrict polling places, absentee voting, and mail-in registrations.
Critics say they are designed to reduce participation by Native voters and other people of color.
Native America Calling will get a look at the latest voting laws and what voting advocates are doing to counter them.![native america calling](https://indianz.com/News/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/nativeamericacalling.jpg)
