From the very founding of our nation, the promise of free and fair elections has served as a critical cornerstone of American democracy. Now, those elections are threatened by foreign influence.
We, like so many of our fellow Americans, were rocked by the Cambridge Analytica scandal -- a story that revealed a gaping vulnerability in election integrity: A digital landscape that, today, remains almost entirely unregulated.
That's when all of America came to understand that Cambridge Analytica had harnessed studies intended to protect democracy -- to undermine it. They then spread seemingly innocuous polls and harvested the personality profiles of 87 million Americans in the process.
Empowered by this data, the firm laser-targeted vulnerable people with disinformation campaigns -- campaigns intended to seed distrust, fan hate, and alter election outcomes.
While Cambridge Analytica is now defunct, a whistleblower warns these same tactics are still in play. What's more, some of Cambridge Analytica's former employees now work for the Trump campaign.
That's why Dean introduced a bill to ban foreign influence of our elections through online advertising -- and why he's joined with his fellow members of the House to pass a broad election security package.
Will you help us fight for election security and keep Dean in office by helping us reach our mid-monthly goal of $7,600?
