In Episode 6 of Unscripted Liberty, we’re joined by Rich Purtell, former chair of the Libertarian Party of New York, to tackle the hot-button issues of New York’s Proposal 1 and the state’s restrictive ballot access laws. Proposal 1, branded as an Equal Rights Amendment, sounds like a win for civil liberties—but according to Rich and the Libertarian Party of New York, this measure could mean government overreach on an unprecedented scale. We’ll unpack the hidden implications and why Libertarians are urging a ‘No’ vote.
