The following is a clip excerpted from a past Network for Responsible Public Policy program Democracy Under Threat.
Our founders laid the groundwork for a form of government that never existed before in history. Democracy: an opportunity for ordinary people to have a real voice in how they are governed. The founders understood that there would always be conditions that would undermine democracy and our sense of nationhood. We are now seeing that their concerns were real, as democracy is jeopardized by suppression of voter’s rights and gerrymandering. Our speakers will discuss these two forces and how they undermine the strength and integrity of our American democracy.
