Voter rights and fights: How Jan. 6 changed American politics

from This Matters · host Toronto Star

Guest: Ed Keenan, The Star's Washington Bureau Chief It has been one year since the insurrection of the U.S. Capitol building by rioters who felt the 2020 election was stolen from former president Donald Trump. Despite the attack failing, the event cast a long shadow over the American political system, as many Republicans continue to push what some call "The Big Lie." As U.S. President Joe Biden gets ready to tackle his voting rights agenda, many experts feel the spirit of U.S. democracy could be at stake.
