Thursday morning on Central Vermont Community Radio: What some local libraries are up to, and how a pair of national organizations are using local voters to block insurrectionists from running for re-election.

9:00 - 10:00 am
Libraries are carrying on with lending and programs of various sorts, despite the pandemic. Lisa Sammet of Jeudevine Library in Hardwick and Carolyn Brennan of Kellogg Hubbard Library in Montpelier will talk about how they've adapted, and exciting innovations they've put in place.

Can the 14th amendment, passed in the wake of the rebellion of the Confederate states, be used to block insurrectionists from running for Congress in 2022? Free Speech for People and Our Revolution have a campaign to do just that, as well as bar Trump from running in 2024. Ron Fein, one of the attorneys involved, will talk both about the challenge they filed this week to the candidacy of Rep. Madison Cawthorn and about the broader campaigns. We'll consider, too, what the process would be for banning Trump from the presidential ballot in 2024 because of his participation in the 2021 insurrection.
