Join Kathy Stein from the local chapter of the League of Women Voters for a brown bag presentation on the history of voters’ rights in New York State. There is an important equal rights measure on the NY ballot this fall, Proposal 1, which would amend the NYS constitution to provide more legal protections for historically underrepresented populations.
