Forget Dr. Seuss And Cancel Culture â The Real GOP Agenda Is Rolling Back Voting
From coast to coast, the party is engaged in the second great disenfranchisement in American history, says one voting law expert.
WASHINGTON â Just weeks into an era of a new Democratic White House and Congress pushing through their priorities, Republicans appear to have settled on an agenda of their own.
No, not Dr. Seuss or âcancel cultureâ or breaking up Big Tech or any of the culture war topics that dominate their fundraising appeals and the Fox News evening programming, but the singular issue on which they seem to believe their future success will depend: making it harder for poorer people and communities to vote.

Allison Baker doesn’t hesitate to compare her artwork to the interior of a ‘90s Taco Bell. As the artist and educator sees it, the Mexican fast-food chain’s dining room represents a “very particular intersection of class and aesthetic,” and encapsulates the tone she is always striving for in her work.
“It’s like when you think about the cartoons from the ‘90s, they were super gross,” said Baker, who lives in Minneapolis. “They were really cute and sort of twee, but disgusting and kind of vile.”
That aesthetic is on full display in Baker’s latest exhibit, “Laundry / Landscapes,” which is currently showing at Syracuse University’s Random Access Gallery through Friday. It’s a combination of large “soft sculpture” pieces constructed out of various fabrics, and a series of paper collages made from a material called Color-aid.
