Election Protection Update for John
Email:[email protected] 2020 Election Protection Signature: MISSING
Democrats in the Senate have been fighting day in and day out for comprehensive election security legislation but Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans have thrown up roadblocks at every turn.
THE BAD NEWS: Without a combination of funding and legislation state and local election officials across the country won’t have the resources they need to protect our elections.
THE GOOD NEWS: Because of supporters like you we’ve made progress in the fight for election security in 2020 and beyond -- but it’s critical we don’t let up now.
Last week the Senate Appropriations Committee voted to allocate $250 million toward election security efforts across the country. It’s a step in the right direction, but it’s not nearly enough.
If Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans are serious about safeguarding our democracy, they will pass the full $600 million proposed by the House and take up bipartisan legislation in the Senate to make real investments in our election security system.
