 Big Lie has convinced a staggering number of Americans that the 2020 
 presidential election was “stolen” — and now some states are trying 
 to create new rules that would allow them to control election results. What 
 does the Constitution say?\n\nThe right to vote has erupted as a power 
 struggle between states and the federal government in the wake of the 2020 
 election, but who really wields the power? The Constitution’s Elections 
 Clause paints a clear picture of the broad authority given to Congress to 
 formulate election rules. But the far-right is now seeking to contort the 
 little-known clause to justify their voter suppression and election 
 subversion plots.\n\nJoin us as Brennan Center president Michael Waldman 
 moderates a discussion with an election scholar and a historian to break 
 down the Elections Clause and explore what the future of voting — and the 
 fight over it — will look like as we approach the midterm 
 elections.\n\nProduced in partnership with New York University’s John 
 Brademas Center\n\nSpeakers:\n\n--Franita Tolson, Vice Dean for Faculty and 
 Academic Affairs, Professor of Law, University of Southern California Gould 
 School of Law\n\n--Rosemarie Zagarri, University Professor and Professor of 
 History, George Mason University; Author, The Politics of Size: 
 Representation in the United States, 1776–1812.\n\n--Moderator: Michael 
 Waldman, President, Brennan Center for Justice\n\n\n
