Episode description
Is it us or do the names of bills and acts often sound like super-secret spy codes? Like legit should we go get a walky-talky and take it from there? Well, the case is no different for HR1, which is better known as the ‘For the People Act’ -- and, to make it super confusing, it’s also commonly referred to as the ‘voting rights act.’ With three names and a million and more details to digest, we brought on Nathalia Ramos to dissect and discuss what the bill entails. Through our conversation, Nathalia who wears many hats, including a role as a content producer for think tank, the Berggruen Institute and as the Founder of Whole Bunch Media, we learned what’s in the bill, why it’s important, and its future in the Senate. Oh, and we finally defined gerrymandering.
