## Resource

Donald Trump has demanded that Congress pass the SAVE Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act) and refuses to sign new legislation unless the bill moves “to the front of the line,” raising new questions about voting access, political leverage, and the future of U.S. elections. In this video, we examine the deeper history of democracy in the United States and why the system has always struggled with representation, voting rights, and political power. From the creation of the Electoral College in 1787 to the long fight for civil rights, large groups of Americans were excluded from meaningful political participation for much of the country’s history. Independent media has never been more important.
