Republicans have introduced more than 250 bills in 43 states to restrict voting rights, justified by false accusations of fraud in the 2020 election that sparked a deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on January 6.

Today on All Sides with Ann Fisher, we look at the legacy of Jim Crow and today’s efforts to limit who can cast a vote.
Guests:
- Andrea Hailey, CEO of Vote.org
- Carol Anderson, Charles Howard Candler Professor of African American Studies at Emory University
- Zack Smith, legal fellow at The Heritage Foundation's Meese Center for Legal and Judicial Studies
