About this listen
This week I'm joined by Barbara Ballard, Democratic state representative from the 44th legislative district in Kansas representing the communities of historic Lawrence.
We talk about the Kansas GOP's failed attempt at a referendum to remove a woman's right to choose from the state constitution, what this desperate attempt means about the GOP's tactics and the party's view on democracy, and how this party of a shrinking minority of Americans will continue to find ways to impose its will on the majority.
For Representative Ballard, one thing is clear: the people of Kansas didn't wait for a savior; they saved themselves. Whether at the state, local, or federal level, democracy is not a spectator sport.
