In celebration of Law Day 2022, the American Bar Association today unveiled results from its Fourth Annual ABA Survey of Civic Literacy. The survey measures the American public’s civics knowledge as well as their views on a range of topical issues. This year’s results include public opinion on proposed changes to voting requirements, why people say they vote and whether they think their vote makes a difference. The survey was released during a program today featuring NBC News correspondent Yamiche Alcindor, NAACP Legal Defense Fund President Janai S. Nelson, former chair of ABA Section of Civil Rights & Social Justice Wendy K. Mariner, and Phillip J. Strach, a litigator in redistricting cases.
